For larger injuries the primary concern is keeping the wound cleaned and protected so the colour of the bandage goes out the window. I doubt many people care about the colour of the bandage. On another note casts used to come in white only. Now our hospital has casts in the neon colours. They are a big hit with the younger crowd. Obfood: I tore my hamstring last Wed. Along with the pain, crutches, and tensor bandage, I have a good amount of bruising. To help the bruises heal faster I've increased my intake of vit c by drinking more orange juice and eating broccoli and sweet potatoes. I'm also eating large amounts of pineapple. Pineapples contain vit c and bromelain that helps the body reabsorbe the bruise easier. |

Next lawsuit (I'm calling it, folks) will be McDonald's getting sued by
parents and children because of the Happy Meal and Ronald McDonald as "proof" that McDonald's is deliberately marketing its junk food to children (I've heard critics of fast food say that Ronald McDonald and Joe Camel are basically the same thing and that Ronald McDonald should be banned...before you know it, the Ronald McDonald House will have to change its name to the Charlie Carrot House). |
