ok i will but dont think i will have to, its doing alot better now that i have soaked in hot water,plus i took a benadryl tablet,when it happened dont know if it helped but dont think it hurt any lol,but if u had not answered me when u did, i was about to really panic,was home alone and didnt know what to do,so again i thank you very much. I come to this site alot but dont post much because i usally find the answers to my questions by just reading the post from everyone else,love this site its a big help.

One peeve of mine is that LFS or suppliers don't often give people this advice when they buy a lion or foxface. Such a simple thing, and saves people a lot of panic and pain. Should be a basic FWI when buying these fish.
Glad to hear you are feeling better! You sure do have a story to tell now!

As A Paramedic Sammy is right. Hot water until you cant stand it. Also I think a little vinegar on it should sooth it some.
