Hi Guys
Chasing some advice The lovely husband managed to score himself a rather nasty cobbler sting last night while taking our little guy for a surf A trip to the docs resulted in a sleepless night of keeping the foot in hot water and pain relief of panadol forte. This morning has seen him up and about only just, very green around the gills with a nausious feeling. Should there be another trip to the docs or is this all part of the process Admire is commitment to getting everyones boards done for the weekend but its not a pretty picture at the moment

Get to the docs if you have done the hot water thing and he still isnt looking good.

Could have a bit of blood poisoning.

Yep go back to the Doc's for sure.
Make sure a bit of the spine hasn't broken off inside where he go spiked.
Have seen some very nasty wounds that required surgery/plastic surgery from fish spines that hadn't been completely removed.

Remember doing the hot water trick at the hospital until getting a local.

Local deals with it completely

Last one the bloody hospital water was only luke warm so I was walking laps around hosital trying to ignore pain until my turn for the jab
