Day 1553: 5 minute Freewrite: Friday - Prompt: Skin problems.

Source

When I was little, I had boil and ringworm on my scalp, It was terrible.
The fear of not letting other kids is school see it, which lead to always covering my hair. Ahhhhhhhh always covering my hair in school and leaving it open only when am at home, caused it to smell a lot.
I was shamed when they mistakenly saw it, kids can be mean when it comes to mocking someone. It didn't end with that, everybody avoided me.
My brothers were so concerned about it, they started looking for solution to cure it. There solutions always cause pain, do I have a choice, enduring the pain now is better than being mocked and avoided by kids in school. They could go the hard way of scrapping my hair and applying lime sometimes lemon, immediately after scrapping. The pains was like hell but I endured it,they sometimes fan my hair to cool it off.
It didn't heal until when I grew up, was glad about it.
During my secondary school , one day I used a cream I was not familiar with. It produced eczema on my back.
Why me? I was glad it happened to a place I could easily cover up. I never left my back open until when it cleared.
During my University days, I had a course mate who her body were filled with things that looked like eczema.
She never hid it, she always says is an allergy that occurs seasonally. Everybody believed her, nobody avoids her and it always occurs seasonally.
