How to protect wounds from infection

Hmmm?
I'll leave this one here for a while. Not sure if it's genuine or not.
I do know one thing though. I've NEVER got an infection from sea water when surfing with a cut or scratch, except when it is caused as I go out - by rocks on the water's edge.
I've always been of the opinion the infection comes from something on the rocks, not out in the water.

Do the first 100 replies receive a free set of steak knives??.

If so, I've been using BLISTER PLASTER for months now, and it's totally made an improvement to my cuts and scratches. They heal so much faster now. I'm so much happier, I'm glad I found it. Thanks BLISTER PLASTER!!!

I have a sea ulcer on my toe that just turned one the other day, send me a free sample and i'll be in the infomercial with Beery.

Improve the packaging? Fuck me. Your initial suspicions are correct methinks Trev.

For the record. Just piss on your cuts. Problem solved.

Will BLISTER PLASTER work on my open herpes sores? Can I still go 'on the job' if I use this miracle product?

Please advise and also provide pricing and stock levels for a lifetime supply of black colored XXXL BLISTER PLASTER.

Okbye.

Excuse me, did you say BLISTERPLASTER?
Yes BLISTERPLASTER the always handy dressing available this week at only $39.99, yes that's right $39.99.

Dunno never used the stuff. Waterproof band aids seem to work okay but the problem is more specific to coral and the tropics I reckon. Antiseptic powder and so forth seem to help but if its humid and dirty and you keep getting a wound wet your pretty stuffed pretty quick. If you keep the dressing on it goes gummy as well.

I used Blister Plaster on a small clean cut on my finger & it caused it to become a huge infected ulcer that ended up giving me septicaemia. I was very lucky not to need my arm amputated. There is now litigation pending.

Okay this was really fuckin helpful! always known that Australians are douchebags and this only confirmed it.. <: <:

[Karlos]

Wow the spammer's all upset at being called out. Thanks Blister Plaster!

Nice job there bowman.

Y'all realise that 'blister plaster' means, in our language, band aid? It's not a brand name, it's a generic reference to sticky things you put over your wound. So it's not product spam. Not surprised at the OP getting upset when criticised for totally the wrong reason.

Of course,research through Internet forums may not produce results that can be entirely validated.

(I know bandaid is in a brand, but using in the general sense)

[Beanpole]

Well if blisterplaster bowman can withstand an initial spray in good humor then he will conitinue posting. If not its probably best if he finds that out early.

I guess he got a bit cut & was unable to cover it with anything suitable

[Trev]

I guess he got a bit cut & was unable to cover it with anything suitable

Yeah. He came across as a bit stuck up.

[Karlos]

Unless he's some Rain Man type with a fixation on band aids, his initial post was a bit suss, & that was only confirmed once he asked if anyone had any opinion on changing the packaging.

Maybe he really is interested in band aids & this is his thing, registering on various forums around the internet soliciting others' opinions on all things remedial first aid. If so, I'd like to offer him an apology on behalf of all you insensitive cnuts who have nothing better to do than belittle someone who is just trying to make a meaningful connection. You fcukers should be ashamed of yourselves.

And don't even think about going over to the thread on the National Economic whatever to start in on healthadvocate...

[Trev]

Looks like he's taken his bat and balls and gone home.
Edited his original post at the top of this page.
Looks like we're just talking to one another now.

Damn, I could really use a set of free steak knives
