Everybody has done it at some time. And you only do it once. Think groin or inner thigh muscle pain. Once is all it takes to never make that mistake ever again.

Exactly. I pulled my inner thigh muscle a few weeks ago. I put some icy hot on my thighs to help with the pain. I wasnt' really thinking ahead and didn't think about what hangs out right there. Never make that mistake again...

..almost.

It's not really that bad. Just a little unpleasant and it goes away very quickly.
:evil:

this happens because soap doesn't really wash it off all that well. At least it's not direct application.

Oh man, been there, done that. When I was on the high school track team, I had tight hamstrings and they would always get sore after a tough workout. One night I put some IcyHot on the backs of my legs and enjoyed the icy coolness and the warm heat that spread throughout my legs. Only, it kept spreading. The vapors traveled up and found their way to a place that should never have IcyHot near it. I was in agony for half an hour, writhing around with my hands down my pants, moaning, "Oh god why...." It felt as though a million fire ants bit every square millimeter of skin, then started little fires all over, and then put them out with rubbing alcohol. Whooee, not fun.

Ha, I did it with Icy-Hot when I was a young teenager. We learn and move on.... never to do it again. (except when we eat hot salsa and go down on a woman later in life and she gets to experience our same pain)

if you know after eating salsa you may cause a woman pain, why are you going to do this later in life when you meet one?
