I've been using Creme Complete

Time to reveal my mystery product. It arrived nearly two weeks ago, and I've been treating myself with it every day since then, so am in a position to be able to speak about its effectiveness. The product is made by Perrin Naturals, and is called "Creme Complete". It's an all-natural creme that many users have found very effective on Lichen Sclerosus. I ordered it at the start of the month, as part of my aim to find faster ways of healing my BXO. Does it work? I believe it does, yes. As you know, I've been using a combination of different treatments, each with its own purpose. Primarily, I've been using Tea Tree Oil. I apply it to the affected area with a cotton bud, then slide my skin forwards over the head. It gives an unusual 'burning' sensation for a little while, but then tapers off. The thing I like about the Tea Tree Oil is that it seems to create peeling on the surrounding areas as well as the obviously white BXO areas. 3% Hydrogen Pero

Mystery product is here

On the 11th, I arrived home to find my mystery product had arrived. It's not actually a mystery product. It just is to you guys reading this. I'll name it once I know whether it works for me or not. Today is the end of the seventh day of treating myself with it, and I'm trying hard to continue the same treatment as I was doing before as well as using the mystery product. What I was doing was working. The aim for this month is to find ways of accelerating progress, not try entirely different methods. So it's really a case of figuring out how to fit it into my treatment schedule. Does it work? I don't know yet. It's only been a week, and even the treatments I was using that were working didn't really show any great progress after three days. Ask me again after a couple of weeks and I'll be in a better position to say whether it works or not.

Adult setting off

After seeing very few visits, I decided today that perhaps there were people who could benefit from reading this blog but didn't open it because it was marked as adult. So, I have turned off the adult setting. I want to be rid of BXO myself, but almost as much as I want that, I want to help others as well. But I can't help them if they don't come to my blog. So as of today, this is no longer an 'adult' blog. That is all

August Week One update

My aim for August is to discover treatments that work faster than what I used for the first month and half. The reason for this should be pretty obvious. One of the pieces to this puzzle, I believe, is Tea Tree Oil. As I mentioned at the end of July, I had briefly experimented with it for a couple of days, before getting scared by the burning of healthy skin, so I stopped. But then I noticed a decent amount of peeling some 4 days later. That was enough to convince me to try again. At the moment, my daily treatment begins with applying a small amount of Manuka Honey to a small wound, and keeping the area dry after urination. In the evening, I then let the area dry out, and do some gentle scrubbing with my finger once the area has more friction. I find I'm always finding skin flaking off at that stage. I then apply Tea Tree Oil with a cotton bud, and cover my head with my foreskin. This creates a slightly warm burning sensation, but not one that I'd describe as unpleasant. Once

Why do I call it BXO?

This blog is only read by Google at the moment, as it crawls the web looking for pages to index. Nonetheless, there will one day be a time when people read this blog for information, and I suspect, when that happens, at least some of you will ask this question: Why do you call it BXO and not Lichen Sclerosus? It's a good question. Lichen Sclerosus refers to the skin condition, just like eczema refers to a skin condition. Lichen Sclerosus occurs both in women and men, and can occur on any part of the body, but is perhaps most awkward when it occurs on the genital area. You could rightly argue that, if a person has eczema, it's always called eczema, no matter what gender the patient is. Whether a man gets eczema on his penis, or a woman gets it around her vulva, it's still called eczema. And that's true. But here's the kicker. Men and women aren't the same. We learn that as preschoolers, right? We're not referring to Lichen Sclerosus on a man's arm v
