Something you don't want to find out the hard way...lime juice and exposure to the sun create this beauty. Don't run out and try it...IT HURTS!
On Wednesday I made freshly squeezed limeade (limonada) and then went swimming with the kids. Thursday afternoon the affected area on my hand was red and sore, and Friday morning there were two pintop blisters. By noon on Friday, I had large blisters and by this afternoon the large ones increased even more in size! It is a burning sensation and very tender to the touch. I only knew what was going on once the blisters appeared because Anastasia's daughter Hartleigh had this on her back after Anastasia squeezed a lime into her coke and then picked up Hartleigh while they were on the beach.
We thought limes and the beach were like honey and bees. They just go together. Obviously not.

NEED0695Looks painful! Daddy and I are at home today but maybe we will wait until you feel better. Hope it is soon, especially since your birthday is Wednesday. Let us know how things are going. We love you, Mom and Dad
Ouch! That is crazy! Never knew that about lime and sun exposure.
