Default Tetanus every 5-10 years - Please Read - Important!

I also have no lymph nodes under one arm so in theory am at danger

from the
slightest bite, scratch, sting, burn or other damage and if I

sustain such
damage should have an antibiotic shot as a matter of urgency.

That's the latest thinking. I expect it will change.


I have been given a health warnings for those with no lymph nodes is
recent months and it didn't involve an outomatic jab.


Different health advisers have different approaches.

It was to use
antiseptic to clean any wound (even a scratch) and to then dress the
wound and to use an antiseptic cream in association with the dressing.


That was forbidden by my advisers :-)

Rose thorns are said to be the most dangerous for the development of
cellulitis.


:-)

I too have always been careless about my own health but given the
right rollicking I got about what happens with cellulitis and how
easily and quickly it can develop from even a small scratch, I now
follow the routine. Why take the risk when the rememdy is so easy?


I drive a car. I eat raw food - including raw eggs. I breathe unfiletered
air.

We all have lectures about risks. Life isn't without risks.

I want to live well and not spend my life bandaged, smelling of TCP or at
the end of a needle. I have damage to my hand and arm most days ...
