    Stingray sting

    Whats up guys. I've been chillin at home for the last hour with my foot in a pot of hot water.
    before that, it was an hour in hot water at the beach.

    The pain was fuckin terrible for the first hour, my friend drove the e30 home, and since i was in a buncha pain I forgot my wallet and shit in the car before he took my car back to his work.

    So I don't have my medical card on me and think I'm gonna chill for a few hours (if) before i go to the hospital for antibiotics or something.

    how many of you guys have been bit? what was your course of action?

    BLOWS too because the the waves weren't even good today.. caught a very decent one and as i rode it in, i just out of nowhere felt a pop on my foot, and went into the shock of pain.

    cheers

      They don't bite, they sting!

      The old wives tail is to pee on it but I think that is just a wives tail. Try vinegar and hot water. It will take time but this will help speed the process. Good luck, those things suck!

            You just have to suffer. That's what you get for living close to the beach while i'm so far away at work.


            Stingrays are a flat-bodied cartilaginous fish with one or more barbed stingers located midway on the tail. They normally live in coastal tropical and subtropical marine waters, making it possible for them to come in contact with humans....

                actually though, the pain is mostly gone, i just cant walk on my right foot.
                some of the lifeguards said a hospital trip isn't needed necessarily and I wanted to get the R3v opinion

                funny as hell tho - friday the 13th and i've been in the waters of San Diego for over 2.5 years now, I row 6 days a week in mission bay - this has never ever happened to me

                    Atleast you didn't have to pee on yourself. Got a jelly fish sting on vacation this year on my foot. Forgot how bad those suck, then I pissed on myself and it was all good.

                        I got stung in the back of my right knee. Hopped off a jet ski and landed right on it. Man it was so painful and took about 3 months to fully heal. I feel for you man.

                              Yeah I heard something on the news that the stingray population is super high down there right now, and tons of people are getting stung.

                              They like interviewed a lifeguard who said that like upwards of 80 people had been stung in the last week LOL. I would just stay out of the ocean, fuzz that stingray business.
