Im heading over to bali in the next couple of weeks and was wondering the best treatment for coral cuts - as more than likely Ill bounce at least once!

Also is do they charge you a fee when bringing boards in?

Gee with a negative attitude your going to get smashed, dont think about it otherwise your mind will make sure you hit it
On the numbers game anymore than three and your deemed an imported,go figure

i will keep that in mind look down the line and chaarge

Ok thanks for the advise - no matter where i go, if there is something that i can cut myself on more likely than not, I do.

Hello Spankedagain, The best treatment for coral/reef cuts is a Chinese Red Ointment called Tieh Ta Yao Gin Liniment, i used some on a boat trip in the Mentawai's that another surfer had, it was way better than Betadine. Unfortunately it is very hard to find in Aus but you can buy it on E-bay from the UK or on the Web at martial arts supplies in the US, it used to be in a First Aid Kit for surfers but they no longer make it. If you find it some where in Aus let us know as i would like to get some myself before going to Bali in May, apparently you can get it in Indo but from where i don't know. Hope this info helps, Hoppy.

My feet get cut up by coral all the time, I just leave them.

goto the chemist - buy some Aqua-ear...about 5 bux...


treatment.....get an old toothbrush....grit teeth , rub aquaear into cut with toothbrush,,,


treat a.s.a.p....dont leave it too long ,,,..... if the infection gets into your bone it can stay with you for life

nasty little fekers

im going on the 19th hope we both score... if not bring on the jam jars bintangs and sweaty sheilas!!!
