Any weak acid will neutralize the alkaline nettle sting - vinegar or lemon juice, maybe but perhaps not H2SO4

Amputation is pretty good,though my suggestions often leave me without a leg to stand on.

Poor old Brown is dead and gone,
His face you'll see no more,
Because what he thought was H20....
Was H2SO4 :facepalm:

:O

Shit, that happened to little Timmy too.

Little Timmy took a drink
But he will drink no more
For what he thought was H2O
Was H2SO4

And Johnny!

Johnny was a scientist,
A scientist - no more!
For what he thought was H20
Was H2SO4!

There are ALWAYS dock leaves next to stinging nettles. It's one of the wonders of Mother Nature.

Like the best thing to use for getting bits of egg shell out, when you break an egg into a cup, is the half an egg shell.

Someone must have been playing a cruel joke by removing all the docks leaves because I couldn't find any..

As you feel the need to start a thread asking for help with stinging nettle 'injuries', would you go to A&E if you stepped on a plug?
 








Ok So I got stung by stinging nettles at the REMF game and couldn't find any doc leaves. I've had a look online but don't have anything they recommend to cure the stinging, does anyone have any home remedies? This stinging is driving me crazy..

I assume you have managed to pull through this??
