Hey, um... Can I ask you a question or two about my arms?

I'm just wondering if the skin will ever come back on them and if I'm going to have some pretty nasty scars when they do heal, same as my hands.

Hoshi, I'm a doctor not a witchdoctor.

I've already broken a few hundred Starfleet Rules to save Mion's life. What more a bit to restore the skin on your arms?

... you're not SCRATCHING them are you? It'll disrupt the regenerative creams!

Well, that is true. You broke the rules during the Tetha invasion, right?

And w-well... the cream is itchy. I try to not scratch them, but I do rub them against things to make the itching stop!

More or less.

It's supposed to do that Hoshi. The cream is a biological compound that is regenerating the skin on your arms. In short, don't scratch it.

If you can put up with it for a couple more days, your skin will be healed.

Is there anything you can recommend to make sure I don't scratch my arms, like cold water, taking a hot bath...?

Mm, okay. Will I still have scarring?

[photonsbefree.livejournal.com]

Take a hot bath once every five hours to relieve the itchiness. Other than that, I can't help since the cream needs to run it's regenerative course.

A little IF you keep scratching! You're recovering from 3rd degree burns!

Alright. It's noted!

...Right, of course. I hope that they don't scar!
