Sore Arms

Cut the conifers for, well the first time in 18 months today. Think I've suffered some reaction Both arms are stinging away like good uns That'll learn me to neglect the car

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

When I last cut down a conifer my arms were covered in weals like that - I think it's something in the resins/oils that give them their distinctive smell.

They go away quite quickly though...

Happened to me too. As said - must be the oils etc. Not nice but not permanent.

Yup me too!

Deffo the resins in it too!

Showering or bathing after doing the gardening....read conifers.........really aggravates it too.....
