Lucy Jones, from Kent, initially left medics stumped over her condition
A mum has been forced to fly home early from her 'holiday from hell' after suffering horror burns on giant hogweed - leaving her needing to wear GLOVES whenever she leaves the house.
There, Lucy had the tops of her blisters scraped off and her hand dressed - a procedure she described as 'painful and traumatising'. Once her hands have fully healed, Lucy will have to slap on sunscreen three times a day and wear SPF gloves to protect her scorched skin from the sun. "It was painful and traumatising. It was as if my hand had been put in boiling hot water and there were blisters everywhere and some red patches started appearing on my left hand. I went back to A&E for a couple of days to get it dressed. I went to the burns unit and the consultant said he knew what it was because he'd seen it before.
"I can't recall walking through woodland. I was extremely surprised I hadn't heard of it. Since returning, my friend said that our area has a bit of a problem with it. It wouldn't surprise me if I touched it here without knowing then I reacted in Spain."
