| Mar 2, 2015 at 2:51 | comment | added | Unionhawk | First of all, as long as it doesn't pop, a blister is not an open wound. Secondly, I don't think it's unreasonable to allow questions about basic first aid, which, at the end of the day, is what blister care is. | |
| Feb 28, 2015 at 15:49 | comment | added | Alfro | @Mooseman Ah, I didn't think about it, thanks for hiding the picture. About going to the doctor... well... In my case, I wouldn't go to the doctor for such a small thing. Blisters usually just dry in a couple of days (I'd feel it's like going to the doctor because of a pimple) Unless it's something very urgent, the appointments are only scheduled in the morning, and I'm working. I can't skip job each time I have a blister. | |
| Feb 28, 2015 at 12:06 | comment | added | Mooseman | @Al.R Anything that says why you can't go to the doctor would help. It is, however, in my opinion, still an ill-advised medical question. Also, I put the image in a spoiler quote box for the sake of the squeamish. | |
| Feb 28, 2015 at 12:04 | comment | added | Mooseman | @Jim It still doesn't say why the conventional solution doesn't work though. | |
| Feb 28, 2015 at 1:47 | comment | added | Alfro | Oh, also. I added a picture with a blister (not my feet, but something as close as I could find :P ) | |
| Feb 28, 2015 at 1:46 | comment | added | Alfro | @Mooseman Hi! I'm the OP! xD I'm also not a native english speaker (if that's even a good excuse these days...). Reading about types of blisters and things I discovered there are some very nasty ones. Mines weren't. And my feet are quite alright actually. To be fair, I never met anyone who went to the doctor because of a blister, so I think it was all a big misunderstanding (probably my fault) I edited it already, but, I'm more than willing to edit it further to make it a clearer, more proper question. Any concrete advices? :P | |
| Feb 27, 2015 at 22:06 | comment | added | Jim | I'm not the OP, but I can't think of any reason why it shouldn't be assumed that a question is asking about "out of the box solutions", given that that is what Lifehacks is about. Fair enough that context is helpful and saying why an OOB solution is sought would be helpful. But in this case, the OP stated the purpose - he "(doesn't) want to skip training because..." I just arrived as an interested observer, and from what I've seen in Meta about the struggle on how to build Lifehacks, your suggestions would be helpful if given directly to the OP at his question. | |
| Feb 27, 2015 at 21:21 | comment | added | Mooseman | I have no issue discussing it. And it wasn't about "unnecessary rules"; it was about the rubber stamp effect. The bigger reason it was closed is because your question didn't show why it needs an "outside the box" solution. If you edited your question to say "I can't see a doctor right now because..." or similar, I'd vote to reopen it. I'd recommend you then post your answer as an answer and add a disclaimer about the possibility of infection, etc. | |
| Feb 27, 2015 at 20:49 | comment | added | Jim | I understand your effort to create a close reason for ill-advised medical questions, but I see that that suggestion was tabled and it was recommended that the issue should be to "err towards discussing these issue with users asking for help instead of creating a lot of unnecessary 'rules'". It appears from the comments that you moved to close without offering to discuss. I would assume that someone in dire need of a life hack won't worry about putting a needle in a blister, but that's something to talk about in the comments rather than voting to close. | |
