Arghhhh! I got into a patch of stinging nettles!

I had gloves on and was pruning away some lilac bushes that were crumpled by a huge dead tree that had fallen earlier in the year. I wanted to clear the surrounding area so my husband could continue to cut the tree down for firewood. I was just going to go out and mow. But NOOOO! I thought I'd just prune back some of the lilac branches that smack me in the face as I mow along side them on the rider. But of course, I couldn't stop there!

My forearms are stinging! It is the strangest feeling actually! Anyone know any good home remedies?
