Okay, I have been SO sheltered since the pandemic that I'd forgotten some of the miseries of the common cold. High on that list right now is the raw, burning stage of my nose and entire upper lip. This is exacerbated by my highly sensitive skin which reacts badly to almost everything.
BUT I HAVE HAD A BREAKTHROUGH!!! SWEET, BLESSED RELIEF, BATMAN!!!
After trying many gentle things that seemed entirely innocuous but burned like fire ants, I had an epiphany! I swear, this usn't an ad. Just me, hoping to spare some of you dear ones much pain, using something you may already have in your medicine cabinet/first aid kit:
Disclaimer: totally not a doctor, no idea what I'm doing, but it seems safe for raw skin, and I'm no longer in incredible pain. If this helps, you're welcome.
