Jungle Jim

I had a mossie bite on a shin that turned very septic after scratching and within three days was a great big tropical ulcer 20mm across. When my old mate Jungle saw this, he said, 'That IS a good one. We'll soon fix that!'

After 4-5 injections into the centre and around the edges(with little deadening effect) Jungle appeared with his scapula and dug the ulcer out, leaving me near in tears and near screaming!

After dosing the bleeding wound with copious quantities of powder, James said, ' that'll fix it'. By golly it did. Healed up very quickly. Jungle may have been a bit rough at times, but he did fix up a few tropical problems.
