Are we gonna have to bring back the injury thread so these don't clog up the discussions....?

 

UGH.

The first person to start the Injury thread this year needs to be banninated.

Hopefully Zambrano will be able to reattach it in his spare time.

How does a person's finger get infected? And what exactly happens... it swells up, or what?

I've had an infected finger before. It always hurts, hurts even more if you use it or touch it to anything, and you have to needle it and stick it in epsom salts to make it better. It wasn't fun.

From sticking it somewhere you shouldn't.

Eww. I better stop doing that. :lol:

Some anti-biotics and he'll be Super Ramirez once again.

[erik316wttn]

They'll give him some oral antibiotics and he'll be fine.

 

Worse case scenario, (and i mean if it gets really bad) they'll give him an IV drip and he'll miss a few days.

Well, think about it. You get a cut somewhere (usually with me its the skin right on the side of my fingernails), and with all the dirt and stuff Aram is around (putting it in his glove or fielding grounders), swinging the bat, etc, it's quite easy to see how it can get infected.

 

He probably got a small cut, thought it was nothing, and woke up one morning with it all red and swollen. It happens to me quite a bit, although never that bad.

Maybe he had a cut, and then alou'd his hands.

urine is sterile.

My wife who is an RN says not competely. In the bladder it is unless you have a bladder infection. Once it enters the last stretch of the journey it becomes populated quickly. It is warm and moist the perfect medium for bacteria.

and the chances of that are small (bladder infection).

 

* i don't recommend drinking/bathing in urine. :lol:

 

it's also how bacteria swim upstream if you happen to be in stagnant water - they love those warm and moist conditions.
