Day 8

Thought I would do a closer picture today. The redness is definitely noticeable now and the contrast between the treated upper half of my face and the untreated lower half is quite noticeable. The picture was taken just after this morning's application of Efudix and the redness does appear to diminish a bit throughout the day, it is possibly also slightly exaggerated by the camera flash. From several feet away I don't look too bad and am not yet too self conscious of my appearance. I am still suffering very little discomfort although I am now constantly aware that something is happening to my skin. The easiest way to describe it is that it feels like I have a touch of sunburn.
