So I was really stupid and agreed to go swimming with a few friends of mine later, but I slipped up last night and my arm is burning already. I don't think I can do chlorine like this...but is there a way I can go anyway? How long should I wait, if at all?

If it's burning, a good trick I learned is to put some antibacterial ointment on it like neosporine, or something of the sorts, it will take away the burning, trust me.
If you're worried about the cuts being seen, I have two suggestions for you: you can wear like a long sleeved rash guard, or shirt and if they ask why say something like you don't want to get sunburned, or you can put on a few water proof bandages, and then you'll have to make up a story about how you got hurt there, and you also have the risk of it falling off. Or you can just back out of it if you're really worried about it. :/ Sorry but that's the best I can do. I hope everything works out well for you dear. If you need anything else, you can always PM me.

A long sleeve shirt always works, as do waterproof bandaids. U can always back out and say you got your period as an excuse too. U can get through this I know you can!
neospprn or aloe might help. Take care!
