Pee and other remedies
Yea, we got that one too ... best to SOAK your feet in Urine for about 10 minutes for any sort of result. In any case, very temporary relief from Athletes foot. High tech anti-fungals needed to really get rid of it.
But Pee is good some something else:
Jelly Fish stings. It won't save you from giant killer Jellies (like in Oz) but works GREAT on typical floater Jellies like we see in California and Mexico. (old surfer trick I learned as kid)
Another miracle beach remedy is for Sting Ray stings. These bastards will hurt you bad if you step on one. Very common injury in Mexico. Solution? Very HOT WATER! Pain gone.
Another one I learned in Hawaii is for Giant Centipede bites: Salt Water. I was bit by one about 12" long ... agonizing pain. The local Hawaiian guys got me to the Ocean and pain was gone in two minutes. Miracle!
Question:
Who knows a fix for your feet if you've stepped on those bastard Sea Urchins?
Poisonous spines very painful, takes several days to puss up and be pushed out. Anyone know anything? I once fell off my Surfboard ... and rolled onto Urchins. OUCH! (no wet suit) High fever all night, PAIN. (about 10 spines in me)
