Hahaha!!! Not many of those guys left anymore. My grandpa has pulled some similar stunts, "A doctor? What's that?" My wife works in a clinic about 2 miles away, I sent her a "[emoji106]" of my shop towel and electrical tape bandage. [emoji23]

When we were little and had a cut G-pa would put Mecurichrome on it.......burned like fire........it was banned here in the US because of its Mercury content.

Been there buddy. That stuff works too.
The old timers would dig yellow root for use as an antibiotic and for inflammation. Nasty as it could be. Lol. A lot of other stuff too from the mountains. I know a little bit but we forget more and more with each generation. It’s so isolated where my family’s from (and been for over 300 years) that it’s still over an hour to the store. People become resourceful in those situations.
 
Hey G! Friggin hot all over I think! The head is good......Dr took the stitches out after clinic today.......had some wet Q-tips gettin some clots off and noticed a numb area......can't feel anything......hopefully sensation will come back! How's things your way? Taco runnin well? Family all doing well?
