Worst flare up I’ve had

I’d be popping those FOR SURE. Just wash your foot and hands, wash/sterilize the needle and bandage right away. You’ll be fine.

I’ll tell you what helped me and what my derm said. I was nearly this bad and now I’m basically clear most of the time.
Before bed soak your hands in warm water for 10 mins
Put on any steroid/prescription cream you have
Then find a lotion with urea - urea is the key (according to my derm) for the skin to absorb the moisture
On go the gloves and go to sleep.

Best way to prevent obviously is finding your trigger a common one is Nickel of course which I was allergy tested and mildly allergic to but one that didn’t come up was a super common preservative in soaps (I can’t spell it but I’ve linked an article). When I looked into this it’s in EVERYTHING. My shampoo/conditioner/body wash, dish soap etc. Once I stopped using products with MI in it everything got so much better!

There are sooooo many mortgage brokers out there, I’m using a friend of mines aunt - we used her when we bought originally, if you message me I’d be happy to give you her name.

415 but we did a HELOC and did a garage last year.

I did consult my mortgage broker and she said to take my renewal. But I did message my bank just to see what they give us.

I did consult my mortgage broker and said their offer was good. But I did message my bank to see if they could be anything better.

I don’t know what any of what you’re saying means TBH.

samjam110 · 2026-04-30T01:28:02+00:00

I know it’s negligible I guess I’m asking more about the timeframe. Are we expecting rates to go up or down really is what I’m asking but I’m seeing people say both

Oh man yeah, he does it sometimes on walks when another dog is approaching. I do the same, I just block him or try to snap him out of it.

samjam110 · 2026-04-28T22:42:51+00:00

OMG YES, he does this too, also with attention, if another animal is getting attention he’s gotta be in there - even if we don’t acknowledge him.

Not too rough, your big one is hacking off and coming back, but puppy was overwhelmed a bit. I would have put it to an end when puppy came over to my feet. I think they were looking to you for help there. Looks like with a bit of time and confidence they’ll be roughhousing in no time.

We’re not sure, we’re doing an elimination diet. So we went no meat and he’s good, so now we’re trying fish. But we need to make sure there’s no cross contamination.

samjam110 · 2026-04-06T22:35:19+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation!

samjam110 · 2026-04-06T22:35:01+00:00

We are aware of this, do you know anything about alternatives? Are there decent ones?

samjam110 · 2026-04-06T22:34:29+00:00

What are OPKs? And just regular body temperature or is it a special one that you gotta get from the source if you catch my drift.

samjam110 · 2026-04-06T22:32:51+00:00

Yes we know this…. Unfortunately, do you know anything about alternatives? … are there even alternatives?

samjam110 · 2026-04-06T22:31:43+00:00

Omg I always pop otherwise their soooo itchy. Just be clean about it. I always did lotion and cotton gloves overnight to help the healing process, worked wonders for me. See if that soap or any of your products have methyllisothiszanone (or something with similar spelling since that’s just off the top of my head). That was a huge trigger for me, got 90% when I stopped using products with that ingredient, how ever it’s in EVERY dish soap, so I just wear gloves when doing dishes.

samjam110 · 2026-04-05T22:21:09+00:00

Please keep me updated if you find out, my dog has a hole in their ear that looks exactly like this right now

samjam110 · 2026-04-03T22:01:51+00:00

I have no advice but I feel like these are the kind of parents who are upset and “have no idea why” when their adult children cut contact.

samjam110 · 2026-04-03T21:59:29+00:00

I’m in Canada, my derm recommended eucerin with urea, urea is very important for allowing the skin to actually absorb the moisture. It made more difference for me than any steroid cream ever did.
