    MRSA is scary shit. I used to see it all the time from unwashed gym equipment getting into cuts on the hands and arms. It goes 0-60 very fast.

      Yeah, you're not kidding. My arm was red one day and then bloated to like 4 times the size in like 2 days

        Fuck that. Did you develop compartment syndrome? Especially with extremity infections, everything below the arm/leg is fed by small capillaries which shit the bed when blood flow is interrupted. The swelling of MRSA really endangers them.
