I was out running last sunday, and I had to take a leak really bad. I figured that I just go in the woods quick, and there’d be no problem. Unfortunately I must have touched some poison ivy, oak, or sumac before going to the bathroom. The oil then must have transfered to my nads and johnson when I took a piss. It was a bit of a delayed reaction, but by Tuesday night my groin was on fire.
Calamine lotion has been, unfortunately, ineffective. What has been effective is ice on my balls. So I’ve been spending my evenings and sleeping with a bag of ice down my pants. I had training this week at work, so I couldn’t sit there with an ice bag down my pants. It was miserable. They had a cooler full of sodas for drinks, so at lunch time I grabbed a can and went into the bathroom for like 20 minutes and cooled down my nuts. God that was a great feeling. It’s tough because it’s such a sensitive area. It’s really itchy, and itching it feels really, really good. ’
My junk is swollen and nasty looking now. My penis looks like an “S” shape due to uneven swelling. The head of my dick is (luckily) unaffected, but it looks like it’s wearing an elizabethan collar due to swelling. I’m pretty much incapacitated at the moment because walking causes things to rub and itch. Today seems a bit better than yesterday, but then again I’ve just been sitting with ice on my junk all day. Hopefully it’s gone in a couple of days.
A guy goes in the mens room wearing a jacket with empty sleeves and stands at the urinal. A fellow bladder challenged man is standing beside him doing what nature intended. As he finishes the man with the empty sleeves turns to him and says, “I wonder if you would be kind enough to assist me by unzipping me.” The man look at the empty sleeves and says, “Sure” and preceeds to do so. Empty sleeves man thanks him and then says, “I wonder if maybe I could stretch your kindness a little more to assist me in getting it out.”
The man looks dubious but thinks to himself that this man really needs his help and noone will ever know, so assists him. The empty sleeves man relieves himself with the other mans assistance and as he finishes a pair of arms appear in the sleeves of his jacket. Stunned the helper stares at the mans hands and looks up. “Thanks so much,” says the no longer empty sleeved man. " I have a rash and don’t like to touch it"
Go to the doctor before you end up with permanent damage to your package. This is why you should keep the poison ivy soap from the pharmacy on hand. For relief of itching and soreness I found Oak-N-Ivy band CalaGel worked great. However like I said,get to the doctor before yo have a permanent bend or worse.
Papa Tiger, in catechism class when he was a youngster, joined his fellow catechists (?) in skinny-dipping in a nearby stream at lunchtime. All the kids watched as one boy put his clothing down right on top of a patch of poison ivy. Being boys, none of them said anything to him, obviously, but waited to see what would happen.
What happened was the poor kid ended up getting yelled at by the nuns for squirming, till they finally sent him to the priest, who was able to find out what happened.
But yes, you definitely need to go to the doctor! That sounds horrible!
I had some friends that went camping for their honneymoon.
They were out hiking, when the urge hit.
They both got PI of the crotchal regions. :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:
Go to the doctor NOW.
I’m fighting PI on my face for 2 weeks now. I thought that was bad… but I can’t imagine! I had a round of steroids (21 pills in 6 days) and just when I thought it was going away I think I got re-infected. This sucks.
Ok, based on Telemark’s advice (thanks everyone else, but you were too slow!) I went to the immediate care facility. They gave me a shot in the ass of something, and I have a prescription for steroids. Thus far no change in condition, excepting a slightly sore ass cheek.
