Yep... clothing gets turned inside-out as I remove it, so accidental contact is minimized. I've been using the tec-nu scrub (on hands & arms, or even whole body if I've really been "out there," and that seems to be working well also. I'm horribly allergic and get systemic responses that have to be controlled with steroids.. and now with the lymphedema (= increased risk of infection) in one arm, I'm even more paranoid about prevention.
