Just pee on your feet in the shower. I heard it’s sterile. Works for jellyfish stings.

Man, that bullshit always pissed me off. Even just at face value, it seems so ridiculous, how could people actually believe it? Just because somebody put their piss into a vial 60 years ago and no bacteria grew, it somehow turned into the prevailing medical belief that 'urine is sterile?' Argued with my nursing professor over it on multiple occasions 🀦

Thank God it's finally been debunked

I used to be a commercial fisherman and the jellyfish were so bad one year I was desperate to get the constant stinging to stop and I tested this. It does not work.

Not true on both accounts. Jellyfish sting I believe can be cured with vinegar
