lmao like 3 weeks ago for some reason the top of my big toe like dried up cracked and bled one night (not like athletes foot though) and I have no idea why. I made a little splint so it could heal without me bending my toe and cracking it, and applying light moisturizer carefully, it's almost healed, medical bill avoided
Oh another fun one is ganglion cysts are easily treated by absolutely crushing your hand with a textbook
I got sick once with a serious ear infection that wouldn't clear up. I went to the doctor, showed my AU medicare card, and got a prescription. The drugs were generics and heavily subsidised. Total cost $30 AUD.
A friend in the states had the same recurring issue, and it cost them $700 USD out of pocket. They are fully insured and went to covered doctors. The next time it happened they bought a penicillin tea kit from a hippie store instead.
