Scabies is a parasite. It’s like lice for your skin.

no not really…scabies is more like shingles or mat herpes…staph looks like a huge puss filled zit, that causes more damage internally….like what forrest has..thee footage is of him getting it drained…infected blood and pus..pretty sick

Does anyone know if a staph infection is simular to “Scabies”, (not sure on the spelling there). I am currently unable to view the videos to see for myself.

thats pretty gross, and yes he look likes dog shit..better he got out….maybe we can see him fight machida down the road. Id also like to see him fight Rashad and redeem his loss to jardine. untill then i hope he gets better, the dude works too hard to be sidelined

Jason

The bacteria that causes stahp is actually a common one that many people carry on their skin or in their noses. It needs an open wound and can cause minor skin problems like pimples but can also cause fatal illness like TSS and septicemia. (It’s been a while since I last took a bio course, so you may want to double check that.)

So, for all you people that think Forrest has a minor case, thank God he does. Above all, that man has heart and he wouldn’t bail on a fight for no reason.
