After explaining the case.....
Plastics: "Don't you think you can sew that up, give them a shot of antibiotics, and have them see me in clinic."
Me: "You mean like I do 98% of the time?? No. How about I take a pic and send it to your phone."
I sent him the following pic.....
And he called back shortly.....
Plastics: "I am on my way in. Please get me a plastics tray. And please get a cage to lock up these animals!"

Much scarier than an animal's bite! *shudders*
Holy S*it! Amazing picture!
Holy balls! That had to hurt.
I hope Mr. Holyfield is doing okay now.
Just an FYI, I know a doc at a hospital I did a rotation site at that posted a patient's xray on facebook and got fired because of it. It's controversial but I'd hate for this blog to shut down!
He posted it on hisss Facebook. That's an identifier. This is anonymous.
