Default stupid urine tricks

Like I said before, urinating at the beach is only good for writing your name. Read the article listed below. Chedder, if after 10 days your infection is still not resolved, I would follow up with another visit to a doctor. And while were at it borrowing Rx'es from a friend is not kosher. Even if it's the same drug, what's the date on the Rx? After a course of antibiotics, if the infection is still hanging around you may need to switch to a new drug, and possibly have the wound explored to see if there are any retained pieces of the barb. To keep using the same drug for an extended period may only serve to allow the "bugs" to develop resistance. And I agree with you, Tampa General was a good place to go. Everyone gets cranky in the ER. Patients and staff!!

For all you urinators go to: archives.stupidquestion.net/sq6704.html
