Bad Medical Myths
Episode Summary
When a friend has been bit, stung, burnt, or otherwise injured by something, do you often wonder, "Should I suck on it, piss on it, smear butter on it, or stab the person?" Spoiler alert: no. This week on Live Like the World is Dying, Miriam and James answer all these questions and more about medical myths that sound more like kinks, from what not to do to animal bites and what not to use as a tourniquet. Bite and tie people up with seatbelts elsewhere, and with consent.
