| Soothing the Burn | |

| It is a common premise of spanking fiction that the pain of | |
| corporal punishment lingers well past the time of its | |
| infliction. Another premise of fiction is that a victim can | |
| alleviate the discomfort through various remedies. | |
| Because I'm a spanko, I tend to enjoy the after effects of | |
| consensual cp. I don't recall much lingering discomfort from the | |
| mild cp I experienced as a child. I certainly never sought | |
| relief beyond giving the area a brief rub. I've done a little | |
| experimentation with remedies as an adult, mostly out of | |
| curiosity. I've never found one that really did much good. In | |
| fact, the application of lotions and creams just felt icky and | |
| seemed more irritating than leaving the skin alone. The most | |
| disappointing failure was burn gel that had lidocaine in it. | |
| However, that's my experience. I recognize that others' | |
| experiences may be different. | |
| In various stories I've read or written, I've seen wet | |
| flannels/wash cloths, sunburn lotion with aloe vera, witch | |
| hazel, cold cream, and udder cream put forth as remedies. | |
| Has anyone found a remedy that brings relief in real life? Also, | |
| what would be your feeling about allowing a child who'd been | |
| spanked, caned, switched, etc. to use a soothing remedy | |
| afterwards? | |

| Witch hazel is an astringent. I'd think it would burn on fresh | |
| spanked skin. | |
| In general, I think it's the thud that tends to last longer. | |
| For reference and clarity, we use the terms 'thud' to describe | |
| the deep ache of a heavy paddling, and in contrast to 'sting' or | |
| 'burn' which is more a surface pain, but which also tends to | |
| build and not numb out as quickly as thud. | |
| I do think sting fades fairly quickly, no matter how intense it | |
| is, and thus any aftercare beyond a rub doesn't do a lot of | |
| good. | |
| Keep in mind that a spanking does damage the skin. Most of the | |
| time, that damage is just like you'd get from a very hot shower | |
| in the winter or from being out in the sun a little too long, | |
| but not long enough to get a burn. It's a dryness and a slight | |
| tightness. I'd think sunburn lotion and some ointments would | |
| tend to help with that, and they might help recovery be a bit | |
| faster, but I doubt they'll be much to really relieve the sting. | |
| Contrariwise, the best thing to help with the ache from thud | |
| would probably be a deep heat ointment, which might be | |
| contraindicated after you've just been spanked. | |

| I know nothing of ointments that help with spanking pain. | |
| Something that numbs the area (on the order of Orajel) would | |
| seem logical for relief, but as for knowing for sure. I don't. | |
| As Jack said, the thick paddled Thud whipping, especially if it | |
| bruises seemed to last the longest on me as a boy. The more | |
| bruising the longer I suffered. Obviously in today's world, | |
| bruising a boy is not acceptable even in spanking states. | |
| I'll add to Jack's thud with thin belts, that leave welts. The | |
| pain of the welts lasts longer than the bruises of the thud, in | |
| my experience. Welts rubbing against jeans hurt like a mother. | |
| Again, not allowed in todays society. Not allowed to leave | |
| lasting marks. | |
| I have experimented on myself with the thin quarter inch lexan | |
| paddle for sting. It does supply a fiery sting. I have read | |
| stories about how the fire stays with you for days. In my | |
| experience it doesn't. (But it is difficult to give yourself a | |
| hard enough spanking to really get a good test). There is a | |
| tingling feeling that lasts for days. You know you were paddled | |
| and have a lasting warm glow for days. But the intense fire | |
| only lasted during and a short time after my experimentations. | |
| Jack uses the lexan as a discipline tool, and would know more | |
| about how it lasts after an actual disciplinary paddling. | |

| I have always had the idea that witch hazel is good for bruises | |
| and damaged skin. Now I think of it, that of course does not | |
| necessarily mean it would soothe when applied. | |

| Here is a link to an article about the benefits/effects of witch | |
| hazel. | |
| https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/witch-hazel-benefits-uses#section1 | |
| Based on the article, but not on personal experience, I don't | |
| think witch hazel would burn. For those who don't want to read | |
| the article, witch hazel has anti-inflammatory effects and | |
| soothes irritation. | |

| Speaking as a doc, we apply witch hazel to inflamed mucus | |
| membranes--it's the treatment of choice for hemorrhoids, and the | |
| active ingredient in Tucks wipes. So no, it shouldn't burn. | |
| Whether it actually relieves the burn of a spanking, I couldn't | |
| say. | |

| I never had it but I imagine that rather like trating a cut | |
| something like iodine on cane stripes might help after of course | |
| the immediate period after application. Sitting in a pool may | |
| help | |

| Tincture of Iodine (Iodine dissolved in alcohol) is an | |
| old-fashioned antiseptic popular in the 1940s because there were | |
| few alternatives. Applied to broken skin, it was extremely | |
| painful. It would indeed kill bacteria to keep the wound from | |
| becoming infected, but it wasn't soothing. | |

| Iodine burns, it doesn't soothe. A friend who was often | |
| switched in childhood reported her mother would paint her with | |
| Tincture of Merthiolate--she'd go to school bright orange, and | |
| everyone knew what had happened. Merthiolate contains mercury, | |
| is toxic, and is no longer used at all. I began medical | |
| practice in 1978, and never once used Tincture of Iodine in all | |
| the years I practiced. | |

| My mom used Mercurochrome when I was a kid, and I remember | |
| hating it because it burned like mad. She said that proved it | |
| was working. | |
| I will admit I'm a bit confused, because both that and Tincture | |
| of Merthiolate still seem to be on sale, though 'mercury free' | |
| these days, so I've no idea if they'd still burn like they once | |
| did. | |
