I was out walking and I think some homeless man bit my hand. I think he must have been on those bath soaps or something. I pushed him away and yelled and he really didn't respond much. It was pretty hard and broke the skin, so peroxide time! Got a little bit of a fever but I think it must be unrelated to it. If the redness doesn't go down I think I might have to go to the walk in clinic soon.

    Nothing that can't be eliminated...er, I mean, *cured*...with an appropriately administered dose of lead to your brain.

    How did that happen? I'm just trying to picture it. Why was your hand close enough to bite?

    Doesn't matter, that's messed up :noway:

    Please don't take it personally if I stab you in the brain.

    I was just walking by, I didn't even see the guy I know I was swinging my arm a bit and he was just sitting or something and grabbed and bit. its actually getting a lot harder to type I might have to go lay down a bit if this headache doesn't stop.

    Seriously, coming here for medical advise is silly :smile:

    If weird stuff is happening, spend a relaxing afternoon in the ER or urgent care waiting room, get a tetanus shot and a blood test. better safe than sorry.

    I don't know if laying down and napping is a good idea. If you did get some kind of infection, it could cause some serious joint damage if you let it go for very long.

    I knew a lady that got her hand tore up by a cat..bites and everything. It got infected real bad. The whole thing was swollen and she couldn't move it until the hospital had her on IV antibiotics for 24 hours.

    How did you get close enough to a homeless person for them to bite you? Even when giving them money, I stay at least arms length.

    According to the walking dead, you have to chop off that limb asap. Otherwise, you are infected :P

    Jokes aside, I hope you went to that clinic and they ran blood work on you. There's many diseases (not just HIV but that's a big thing too) that can be transmitted through the blood stream.

    Also, I've read recent news about people on bath salts.. hmm.. the epidemic has began..

    remember to have some blood samples taken, so when you turn, they can compare the before and after.

    If you're not joking, you need to be seen by a doctor. If you ARE joking, I'm tuning into see where this goes.
