re: Do duck scratches cause infections?

My dad was a carpenter, got splinters all his life... One day he got one in his had that got infected. Spend a week in the hospital with his hand cut wide open to let everything drain. Watch it close and don't frick around...

Vibrio vulnificus is one serious infection if it gets going. I would seek medical attention at once.

I pray for a speedy recovery with your scratch. If its still not healed by Saturday night let us know ill put you on the prayer list at church.

You gonna die.

Once there was a mallard that scratched my finger,
the pain wouldn't leave and it continued to linger.



I'm sleepy, to be continued tomorrow..

If a bottle and half of wine don't kill it off, you may be right.

Geauxt writing limericks, snake handlers putting me on a list, and everyone laughing about my ailment was enough to put me on the hooch.

All joking aside, I scrubbed the shite out of it put neosporin on it. For a little ol scratch it is painful as hell that is what prompted the thread, and a little tongue in cheek with all the health threads on the OT tonight

No, marsh water combined with the talons of a wild animal will not cause infection.

And don't forget vibrio vulnificus
