We always had iodine. I think my Mom was able to distract me from it stinging because I was mesmerized by the pretty red color. So probably nothing's changed. lol

We used Bactine. I got some when my cats were kittens because of their needle claws. The smell brought me right back to my childhood.

Not sure why anyone would need THAT much of it... We used Bactine. I got some when my cats were kittens because of their needle claws. The smell brought me right back to my childhood. I remember Bactine! I still keep generic triple antibiotic cream around for cuts and stuff. My mom was also a big fan of hydrogen peroxide for lots of stuff, too.

We kept a few things one hand when I was a kid cause I was ALWAYS getting hurt or getting poison ivy, etc - Bactine - Iodine - Rubbing alcohol - Camomille lotion - Peroxide
and the all-time worst: black drawing salve. My mom put that crap on every single scrape/cut I ever got. Surprised I still have flesh on my knees.

Oh I forgot about calamine lotion! I had to buy some of that a few years back when I got shingles. It was kind of a pain in the ass to use because it's more like a liquid than a lotion.
I don't remember black drawing salve, but it sounds interesting.

Slap a $1350 per 0.5oz price on that and you've got some Goop style fuckery.

The DAWI page is equally hilarious and vomit inducing! Stubbed your toe? BLAST IT WITH PISS!
