H and I both have a little around our ankles now and are trying to figure out where we got it. It’s small enough to probably just use some gel we have on it.
The worst PI cases I ever saw were back when I was in Air Force Field Training doing wilderness training and a different group than mine got into some while setting up a campsite. Unfortunately, no one in their group knew they shouldn’t burn it. Four went to the hospital and two were later sent home. We were told they inhaled the fumes causing their windpipes to get affected.
This was still during the era when I was immune, but the incident is still solidly in my memory. I try to share it when PI comes up just in case anyone else is helped from the story, potentially saving themselves or those they know from a similar experience.
