#89 Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 without wearing gloves. My older sister did gardening over the weekend and got a terrible infection from not wearing gloves. I can't remember what it was called but it ended up in her elbow with it swelling to 3 times it's normal size and she is on 2 antibiotics. She could have lost her arm. Some kind of staf infection. So wear those gloves people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So wear those gloves people 345667[/snapback] I was working on a lakeside stone wall last fall and in Nov. I got a very bad infection in my nose and on my upper lip, tho I didn't really know what it was until the ER on Night Three when the pain was just unbearable. If lip size is what makes Mick Jagger so desirable to the ladies, well, I was twice as sexy as Sir Mick. I was wearing gloves, but I guess you just have to wash your hands very well. It really isn't anything to screw around with. We are really a society of wimps now. Dirt is kicking our ass. 345740[/snapback] We're a society that has become too 'smart' for its own good. Thanks, antibacterial soaps, sponges, countertops, etc. that leave only the superbugs crawling all over hell's half-acre b/c they reproduce and spread exponentially. And it's nothing that just one person can do anything about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
