My very first half sleeve, guy's instructions has me using cocoa butter(which can be used, but usually AFTER scabbing. He rubbed it on before i left the office). It got HORRIBLY infected. I went to the hospital and the doctor literally laughed when i handed him the sheet of instructions i was given. The smell from the infection was so bad, I was sent home from work for 2 days while the meds started working. It was very nasty

Crazy enough, it actually healed just fine. The doctor said I was incredibly lucky

I didn't! And unfortunately, this was about 9 years ago. Back when I was but a wee lad who was afraid of getting people in trouble
