I finally started using my gym membership and went to yoga last night. On my way out of the shower room I slipped on the two steps and cracked my head on them. Polished stone floors look nice but are a very BAD idea for showers. My head and arm were bloody so I had to go back up the steps to the sink. After getting dressed I went out and asked for gauze, I could tell that the employees had zero first aid training. My friend Zhou Yan Shi came out and I could finally communicate. They looked at my head and insisted I go to the hospital; three of the employees joined us there. The doctor looked at my head, a guy came in and shaved around the cut, then the doctor cleaned my cut and stitched me up with five HUGE sutures. I could feel the needle on the first two but eventually the local anesthetic injections he gave me took effect. He put a mesh cap on my head to hold the bandage in place, cleaned and bandaged my arm, and gave us some paperwork. They did an xray of my arm and it was fine. I got some antibiotic tablets to take at home and an injection of antibiotics in my butt. It all cost 416RMB, about $60. I didn't sleep well because my head was throbbing and the mesh cap was too small, so it was giving me a headache and kept slipping which pulled on the bandage and hurt even more. I took it off this morning, put on some good old Neosporin, and went to work. Everyone has been so interested and very helpful, they all tell me what I should do for it but none of them have ever had stitches and this is my 6th time! Next week I go back to get the sutures out. The hospital experience was VERY different. The gym will reimburse me, and I got to take my radiographs home with me!
