Oryon Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 So, I'm helping my parents out by selling my mom's scooter... its practically brand new.. she just couldnt handle the "leaning" so they got her a trike scooter.. and needed to sell this one. So for about the past month or so.. I have been jsut pulling it aorund front and parking it.. then around back at end of the day..l etc... which finally the battery started getting weak. So, this time, I let it idle for about 20 minutes to charge up... now, when I ride, I ALWAYS wear long pants.. but I was "just" pulling it around back.. so I didnt bother... around it goes, parked, shut down, and off I hop.. as I turn around, a freaking stray cat runs out of nowhere and starts trying to kill me by tripping me.. (rubbing itself on my ankles).. of course.. I stumble at this point, RIGHT INTO THE FREAKING HOT EXHAUST PIPE OF THE SCOOTER... OUCH.....nice 2nd degree burn on the OUTSIDE of my calf... not a typical muffler burn for sure!Figures.. of all things.. the damned scooter bites me, without even leaving my house!So anyway.. hers a pic, this is after about a week...(this happened last sunday)Hopefully it will heal up soon, as this is pretty damned painful!

grapesmuggler27 Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 That does look like it hurts a wee bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scruit Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Ouch. I once burned my forearm on the exhaust of a mower. Same level of burn, looked the same after 2 weeks. I actually used it as a chance to teach my son first aid and he changed the bandages for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinjaNick Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 Make sure its high octane if you use that healing method scruit. It's been found the higher octane has less burn and healing time increases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helmutt Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 I've heard dabbing raw egg white onto a fresh burn will speed healing considerably. Assuming the protein, and whatever else is in a chicken placenta, feeds the wound and protectively coats the surface. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
