A small harmless looking cut on Saturday costs $96, comes with a tetanus jab, cleaning solution, cream and strong antibiotics. Discovered this cut on my thumb while on the ride at USS last Saturday. As usual, it's too small an issue for me to pay attention to. But I felt it wasn't a normal cut. It was painful from inside and all around the wound. It doesn't hurt when run under water or even when mum applied 青草油. But when the cotton bud touched the thumb it hurts. Initially there was no bleeding. And then I saw that the wound is healing yet still very painful. Was a little black  inside so I thought there might be a bloodclot inside. So I pry open the wound attempting to squeeze the blood out. Instead, white sticky pus came out! Damn gross looking. So there, for fear of dying, I finally went to the doctor. The first time i see a doctor for such a small problem. Abit embarrassing.
