Does anyone get them where it is not a "hotspot"? I have gotten ones on my stomach nowhere near a waistband. I have gotten them on top my breast/chest. Nowhere near sweaty. Those hurt so bad because you don't have the "natural" moist/heat to hurry along the rupturing. |
Intimacy - besides my own inhabitions, it can be painful. The rubbing against them and such. I agree, no lights, cameras (lol) etc. I also have to wear bandaids so they don't "leak" all over my clothes after a rupture. The scars are not so pretty, but DH could really care less, as long as he's getting some. LOL! KWIM? He loves me, and it's just my own insecurities.
I have gotten them around my waistband, and under my nipples. It can sometimes be a hot spot. We should wear looser clothing to avoid the sweating and rubbing when infammed.
((hugs)) You're not alone.
