To be honest, I’m tired of pain. I’ve had enough this last year for a lifetime.

My shoulder is sore,  a large weeping patch of rawness.

I learnt in France a few years ago, after a nasty cycle crash, that raw skin wounds are best cleaned then coated in Vaseline. No dressings, no plaster, no horrible bloody bandages that have to be peeled off repeatedly..  Just Vaseline   – the wound heals, it all stays moist, and no cracking , oozing scab. Remember where you heard it first.
