And how!
Silly me, after "brewing" my cayenne tincture for a full month, I
squeezed the coffee filter I was straining the tincture through with my
BARE HANDS! (I have no idea what I was thinking...)
It took me a minute to figure out why my hands were on fire! And then it
took 4 hours of ice, milk, cold water, and whatever else would work
until the pain subsided. I will NEVER make that mistake again!
I was surprised to see someone (Bob?) suggest using DMSO and Cayenne
tincture in conjunction. I find DMSO makes me itch somethin' fierce from
the histamine release, and cayenne burns my skin, so to combine the two
without some major dilution is slighty scary to me. BUT I am intrigued.
I'd like to hear more of what one experiences with this combo.
