Nettle stings.
 
So i kinda went on a drunken nite out a few hours ago and decided to roll down a hill instead of walk don it :whistling:
...only to find i rolled all the way thrugh a patch of nettles
...and now have my arms covered in nettle stings which are really panful and are preventing e from being able to sheep.
I dont have any dock leafs is there anythig that i can put on thme to soothe the pain?

I just read a thing that says to put vinegar on it.
And you should put some sort of skin salve on it, preferably all natural.

Hope it works!!! (by the way, nettle tea is AMAZING, if you happen to have brought some nettles back with you)

Apparently Jelly soothes it...don't hold me by it though!

I put some antisceptic cream on it witch made it less stingy.
Thanks guys I'll try yours ideas if its gets any worse.
I didn't happen to bring any nettles back with me sadly so i cant have any nettle tea. :(
