Small Risks Are Big Risks for Those With Chronic Illness
15 Sep
Although this could lead to an infection in anyone, for a person like David with Psoriatic Arthritis taking immuno-suppressant drugs, this is a big deal.
A stylist at a national hair cut chain did this to David. And there were two additional cuts on the side of his neck. I had to report this to he state. Yes, I filed a complaint. It is not acceptable for a licensed professional to cut a client that many times.
We put some Neosporin on David’s neck, and it’s healing up nicely. However, if he had gotten an infection, his body would be in a weakened state, and it would be more difficult to fight off than it would be for a normal person. Plus, he would have to stop taking his medication until he was completely well, so he would run the risk of an arthritis flare.
