I guess it had to happen sooner or later. I was in-line skating home along an asphalt path which winds its way through the woods. I’d been through there a couple of days ago — no problems. Today there was a stick which I went around except there were a couple of muddy patches immediately after. So, I made an unexpected road rash stop: some abrasions on my left arm and much more on my left leg (a bit like the image). I skated home, cleaned them up and smeared antibiotic ointment all over the “affected areas.”After I have a shower tonight, I’ll try out those new gel bandages you can leave on for a couple of days.
