So, most of my family (including me) lacks health insurance, which, I'm sure you all know, rather sucks. My brother pierced his nipple in jail (not the brightest idea, but what is done is done) and now he is out and might have an infection or something. I haven't seen it but apparently there is a lump and the nipple is oozing supposedly clearish liquid. We really aren't sure what to do because we don't have the cash to take him to the doctor and buy antibiotics but we're a bit freaked because there was a staph infection going around the jail.
I guess I am not really asking for any advice, really, more I just want to get it off my chest. These types of situations make me so mad. He (or even me I guess for that matter) can't get state supported health insurance (we live in Southern California) because he doesn't have kids and he has a job, but he doesn't make enough to afford to go to see a doctor.
errr.
