Wish this had been around a couple years ago. Might have saved me 6 or 7 surgeries to clean out infection after my knee replacement. 0>;~\

Towards the end you must have been wondering if they'd ever get it licked. Really scary.

I'm just trying to figure out how the antibiotic doesn't still get out there and get released when you toss the used bandage in the trash, or wash the gel down the sink. Seems to me it's still going to get out there and get exposed to bacteria.
