Another burn on my right calf/ ankle

[Jeeper Gone Bad]

Not too bad, but for a quick touch after a long ride, it sure smarts!
Same day and 3/4 days later....

Your right about that doctor comment,:lol:
But the advise is excellent, cellulitis needs antibiotics and thats what it could turn into if it gets infected. Don't ask me why I know this

Always long pants and boots, and even with the long pants, most of my mine have at least a little hole right about mid calf on the right side. More than once when I smelled burnt cotton did it remind to spread the stance out when putting foot down at long stops!!!!

Oh I do remember Big Al with his Topsiders,l of course half the time he could not even feel his feet, God bless him lived life to the fullest and kept riding as long as possible and saw the country and met many of us here until he could no longer due so.

cotton is another key word. never use any synthetic materials around high heat. It will melt and stick to your skin and when you pull it off, it brings the hide with it.
