Have you ever had any infections? I'm sure most of us used to get ear infections often when we were younger. I got a infection on my right pinky once, went to the doctor and he just told me to soak it in warm water. That didn't really help heal it, so I just ripped the infection out and it never came back. :V
 
I had an intestinal infection from drinking ocean water when i was little, the experience was so bad that i had to be hospitalized for 2 weeks.

It was one of the most traumatic stuff in my early days.
 
I had a really bad ear infections when I was a kid. I remember my mom taking me to the ER. It was so bad that I'd throw up and have headaches.
 
I've had a couple of insect bites that have got infected.. One almost to the point of septicemia, because I was doing the typical guy thing of avoiding the doctors and saying "ah, it'll be fine!" - turns out it wasn't!

I also frequently get sinus infections after having a cold. I just seem to be prone to them.
 
I had yeast infection once when I should be 20 years old. When I found out, I had to put everything on hold and have it treated. It was my first ever infection but I'm glad it didn't get out of hand.
 
In my earlier years, I had many ear infections that I remember of, I don't tend to get them anymore now though, or at least it is very rare and I think the last time was around 2015 when I had an ear infection. Other than that I got an infection from a horsefly bite back in 2018. I needed antibiotics for that and it made me feel very tired and unwell at the time.
 
I've struggled with sinus infections due to my allergies and have to really take notice of when the symptoms begin so I can avoid it turning into something really bad.

I had a staff infection once that was hard to clear up, but that's probably because I was also allergic to the meds. oops
 
During my childhood years, I had some wounds that were infected. I need to take antibiotics to get rid of the abscess.
