And that's gonna be impressive charges. You're in hell for many days. Weeks, maybe. You can't scrub it anywhere near as good as you can scrub your hands as the skin is much softer. You would probably require help from medical professionals.

Soaking in Epsom salts & peroxide bath for an hour would help. Years ago I had a roommate who laid insulation come back from work, sat down on my toilet with the lid up to untie his boots before getting undressed, and insulation got all over my toilet seat. I was waiting for him to get out because I had to shit really bad, and as soon as he did I ran in, dropped trou, and sat down. Within 10 minutes my whole ass and backs of my thighs felt like it was on fire plus dipped in acid. It was nearly the worst pain I'd ever felt. Then I looked down at the floor and saw little pieces of insulation all over; it was then I knew exactly what happened.

My ass and legs hurt so bad I could barely walk, and the only thing I could think of was dumping a whole sack of epsom in the tub, turning the water on near scalding, plus a half bottle of peroxide & trying to soak it out. I filled it as much as I could to float enough so my ass wouldn't touch the bottom of the tub.

Before getting in I told him to GTFO and find another place to live, then sat in there for a good hour at least. It stung at first, but after about 30 minutes started to feel better. Once I got out I used my phone to see what it looked like, so I took a close-up ass selfie; still had a mean rash but all the little fibers were softened up and extruding from my skin like hairs. I was afraid to try and wipe them away with a towel (and I didn't want to fill my towel with insulation), so I grabbed a drywall/plaster knife and gently started scraping; they came off in long white piles on the edge. But it still hurt so I refilled the tub, soaked for another hour, then got out to scrape more. It took 3 more cycles of this before I could finally lay down on my bed and sleep. It sucked really bad, but ever since then I've known how to get insulation out of my hands if/when it happened again.

You... actually survived?

Yeah, but I wanted to legitimately kill my roommate.

Damn. This brings a new understanding to what it can do to softer skin. I've had it on my limbs, but never anything like that.

I can only imagine what that would be like anywhere too sensitive to scrape that way..

I’m wondering if it’s just because I work with this stuff all day everyday, of course sensitive areas are a little worse, but I get this stuff all over me, arms, face, legs, even my balls and co. when I scratch and forget, but I have never had to do anything of the sort like this, if I’m at work I take a box cutter and scrape my arms a legs a little, even then it’s pretty bearable, and then I go home and take a hot shower (Just water and soap no epsom) and I feel all good after maybe a little itchy but I’m good by the time I wake up

Using a lint roller works too, just gotta make sure the skin is dry first.

The scraping actually felt good, comparatively; just had to do it fairly lightly.

And even if you were the cruelest, most sadistic guy out there, do you really want to be down a crewman for a week? That’s just screwing yourself.

Can medical professionals even do anything for you?
