disobey_gravityThis is a post where you can ask all the questions you're always wanted to ask about climbing, whether you've already started or are just beginning to think about maybe possibly kind of giving this a try.
Or maybe you've been climbing for decades, and have always wondered about that one thing, and by now it would be OMG TOO EMBARASSING to admit you don't know.
No topics are off-limit, no questions too clueless, so let rip and get answers fromdemi-n00bs experienced climbers.

But there are various climbing balms that help the skin heal much faster, and tape can be used to protect abraded spots. I don't think it'd be a major issue, just something to be aware of in advance.
