So, I Might Have a Staph Infection

It could be nothing, but I have a boil-looking crater on my right arm that is slowly but surely getting worse. I've done my best to keep the area clean, but that doesn't seem to be helping. There is also growing discoloration around the abcess. I'm no medical doctor, but I've also seen enough Kevin Randleman pictures to frighten me into early treatment. I'm at the doctor's office now. Let's see what happens.

The meme is: “Pics or it’s fake.”

Set a world record.

Be opportunistic. This is a great chance to increase staph infection awareness but posting nasty pictures.

You sure it’s not weird stress-herpes?

Or, given his love for Edith, just regular herpes. :-) (Just kidding Luke – hope you get better!)
