lemon gel - #14371
I am really confused about this lemon gel stuff. A few weeks ago, I started having these really itchy patches on my skin, and it was driving me nuts. My friend recommended trying lemon gel for relief, they said it worked like magic for them. So I, of course, tried it. At first, I thought wow, this lemon gel is doing something because the itch seemed to calm down a little bit, but then after a couple of days, it started to get red and blotchy?? I can’t tell if it’s a rash or just irritation from the lemon gel or maybe I’m allergic or something?? I also read somewhere that lemon gel can make your skin more sensitive to the sun, which kind of freaks me out because I love spending time outside! Has anyone else had a similar experiance with lemon gel?? I dunno, like, what do I do now? Should I stop using it or try something else?? Or maybe it’s not the lemon gel at all, and it’s just a weird reaction to something else?? I just wish I new what to do! Can lemon gel really cause skin issues like this, or am I just overreacting?? Please help!
