Hello and welcome to another exciting episode of Hacker Public Radio.
|
|
This is your host, DNT.
|
|
This one I am making it an emergency show for the emergency queue.
|
|
I want to talk about something that my father taught me when I was pretty young about
|
|
dealing with blisters.
|
|
I remember him doing this to my brother on how exactly he got a bunch of blisters on
|
|
his hand.
|
|
He showed this to us and then I have done it many times since and I haven't had any
|
|
problems.
|
|
Most recently I went on a trip to Chicago with my brother and my brother walks quite
|
|
a lot and he was visiting from Brazil, going to Chicago and then I went to Chicago and
|
|
met him there and we walked a whole lot and since now I live in the United States I am
|
|
not used to walking much at all anymore so my feet were suffering quite a lot and he
|
|
was absolutely fine.
|
|
Every night we got to the hotel and I would kind of do maintenance on my feet as you would
|
|
do to a horse or something like that.
|
|
What I did was I think after the second day I had blisters on one.
|
|
I think I had just two blisters on one foot and so what you can do is I went to Walgreens
|
|
which is like a drugstore here in the US and I bought a sewing kit then you can take
|
|
your needle and your thread, you thread the needle and then you poke into your blister
|
|
being careful not to poke your flesh and then cross it to the other edge of your blister
|
|
and then poke it through to come out with your needle then pass the needle through leaving
|
|
some thread inside your blister.
|
|
Then you can squeeze in some liquid will come out and none of this will hurt obviously.
|
|
So some liquid will come out so it's good to squeeze it with a napkin or something like
|
|
that at first and then you can just leave it like that.
|
|
It'll hurt a lot less right away and then you just leave the thread in and when you get
|
|
home in the evening you can remove it and then you can just move on and after a while the
|
|
skin will come off completely but you won't have any more pain pretty much immediately after
|
|
you'll do this so it's a pretty cool trick I've never seen anyone do this before.
|
|
My father taught this taught me this a long long time ago and I've never seen anyone do it
|
|
since I don't know if he came up with this or what and he's not with us anymore so I can
|
|
ask him but so I'm passing it on here as an emergency show. Now this was being posted in 2022
|
|
and just recently we had a show that had been posted in 2012 come through to the main feed so
|
|
perhaps this will go out in about 2013-2033. Perhaps if things go well I suppose.
|
|
So here's a shout out from 2022 to you in the future. All right thank you for listening.
|
|

|
|

|
|
