Reaction to lube!

Me and my b/f went out and bought this from anne summers, however it seems his bits have had a small reaction to it!
He says the head of his bits feel abit itchy+sore. It stung when it touched him, but it just felt cool against my skin, and there is now a small amount of redness :eek2:
Has anybody else experienced this with this, or any other, lube?? If so, what did you do? this is the 1st time we've used lube - shall we try KY?? The redness has gone down now, but its still annoying as we cant use it :mad:
thanx

Get your lad to the FPA for a bit of cream. :yes: And ask him to pick up a few sachets of Liquid Silk! Sorted! :thumb:
well, that makes alot of sense when its put that way - thank you V much :thumb:
Also, is FPA family planning?? Sorry, just cant remember! Can you get liquid silk from there, and if not, where can you buy it??
Gonna look at zella's post now, completely 4got she'd posted it, lol :rolleyes:
Yeah Family Planning Association.
The one I go to - to get my depo jag - offers them by the handful, wee sachets. You can get KY and Liquid Silk from anywhere really, Safeway, Superdrug, Boots, Semi Chem..etc.
Ive seen KY in loadsa places, but never liquid silk- il have to look harder next time :yes:
How much is liquid silk aswell??

also, just looked at zella's post+its mostly about her writing a letter of complaint to boots, lol
Just go in! Mine's has a drop in service running 9am - 11am, just say you and your boyfriend are having difficulty with him entering you as you have body issues, and you need a little help.
Look up your local one on Google or phone NHS Direct and they should locate you. It's ALL confidential, however I'd put your details down just incase you have any worries in later life. It's all free, their treatment, so I'd use it as much as possible.
I'm not too sure about prices, I'd google it on the UK find option it for Liquid Silk. I'm sure most sex websites'd have it..I'll have a nosy.
ive heard astroglide is very good for anal sex+we use it for that sometimes. that's a great deal+i get paid on friday :thumb: think il pop into my FP in abit though, il let you know what they say :yes:
KY is the best, and it is very cheap. Why go for anything with a poncy name when that works fine?
why switch from KY anyway!?
Me: hi, id like some information about your family planning
service - do i have to make an appointment?
Receptionist: well we run appointments tomo afternoon from 1:30 til 3, what is it you want??
Me: just some information really
Her: well would you like to make an appointment, or just drop in
me: can i just drop in tomo???
her: yeah, that's fine
Thing is though, i dont wana drop in and chat to some receptionist woman about getting condoms+lube, and i was quite shy about it. I know i shouldnt be, im 18 for christ sake, so im not underage or anything, its just it was in a busy waiting room, i didnt feel like i could relax
[/rant]
:yes: i now dont want to go, bcos it wasnt her business :mad: id like my boyfriend to come with me, but he doesnt get much time off work, and works like 50hours a week!!!
Oh well, i get paid on friday+im going shopping, so i guess il look for lube, lol
They're asking so they can assess how urgent you are usually, but if you don't want to tell them, just say it's personal. After all, they don't know if you've got an ingrowing toenail or something more delicate, do they?
