msilvermare's Full Review: Lanacane Creme Maximum Strength 1oz
I had just finished my shopping at the local Long's Drug Store and got into my hot car while flinging my shopping bag containing my husband's anniversary card, a package of hair lightning junk, and other miscellaneous drug store items when I felt an intense pain on my forearm. Thinking I must have somehow gotten a splinter somewhere, I glanced down at my arm to see a red mark with a little brown needle and sac sticking out of my arm.
I suddenly realized that I had been stung by something! How dare anything invade my Subaru, my sacrosanct sanctuary? Annoyed, I flicked the stinger away my nail and looked around for the culprit. There, on the shift lever, was this hapless bee. Furious, or should I say furiously, I smashed him with my blue straw purse; once, twice, thrice. Cautiously, I picked up my purse to find his lifeless body. Ha! He deserved it. (Anyway, he would have died without his honey stomach.)
Then, when I realized that my arm was now bright red with a large welt on it, I gingerly took my purse and ran back into the drug store to buy something to take away the agony of the sting. Okay, I'm a baby in disguise.
When I told the pharmacist I had just been stung right outside his store and needed something for the sting, he steered me to the aisle and picked up a package of Lanacane Maximum Strength Anti-Itch Creme.
immediately opened the package and squeezed out a small amount to cover the welt and the now bright read area on my arm. Then I took it to the cashier to pay for it. When I gingerly entered my car, looking around for friends of the corpse, I realized that my arm was no longer in agony. It felt cooler and the pain was bearable.
By the time I reached my house, the pain and itching and diminished to just a faint reminder of its former glory. I could unload the car, hide the anniversary card, and then yell to my husband how I had been attacked by a bee.
The Lanacaine Maximum Strength Anti-Itch Creme had done the job. In ten minutes the area was only slightly pink with a small mark or scar to show where I had been attacked. I carefully placed the tube in my medicine cabinet. It has earned a place of honor for future battles I may fight with the wildlife in my neighborhood--mosquitoes, wasps, fleas, as well as other invading bees. This was an effective product that worked quickly and did its job. I would recommend it for anyone travelling to areas inhabited by bugs. Try it. It works quickly and thoroughly.
