  • Nettle Stings Grrrr !

    Still get a fair bit of nettles around my way , some of the monsters tall enough to sting my forearms as well as the usual shins taking a real stinging.

    Not a problem while still riding , the problem is still stinging while I’m trying to sleep !

    Question is , any creams or potions to stop this ?

    I don’t wont to stop & look for Dock Leaves & I want to carry on wearing shorts & short sleeves !

    Thanks

    Oestrogen?

    Of course the real answer is a hearty dose of MTFU…

    Antihistamine tablet or some sting spray from boots, either seems enough to let me get to sleep after a night ride.

    Savalon skin healing cream does a pretty good job for me.

    When did Dock leaves go out of fashion?, round our way general where you find Nettles one will find the other near by, natures clever like that.

    Try some Alum crystals, bought some at a country fair (expecting it to be rubbish) and it seems to work, just wet the crystal and rub it onto the stings.

    Have had a few friends try it and it seems to work for them

    Hydrocortisone cream if antihistamine cream doesn’t work fast enough.
