  1. It actually spread by contact to the 2nd place when bending the leg sitting or in prone position..
  2. This is the damage it has done to my leg... I would think the doctor knew because it matches other cases he has treated.
  3. The VDO shows a little smoke.. No big bmb for sure. Perhaps a small paper sack with some small amount of explosive. Too bad for the 6 police injured. Although, I am sure they will be ok. Yala is like the wild west. Anyone is a target if there is an opportunity. How many years now has the Thai gov been fighting there and never seeing any progress? Year after year the same old fighting.
  4. supposedly they passed a law about this. But it appears to only apply to Thais. Posting any images or videos of foreigners without expressed consent is a free-for-all and apparently the law does not apply to them. Most likely that law was forgotten by the police until such time someone reminds the BIB with an envelope to pursue the poster.
  5. On the Thaiger site. It clearly states this couple was engaged in having sex there. So my post is irrelevant.
  6. The photo does not show much. But it does not appear they were having sex there. Intimate acts like holding her and kissing her? Thais need to stop with their nitpicking about public indecency. They are using it vaguely to insult any foreigner they can by posting it online when usually it was harmless. Couples touch each other... Get over it. Couples kiss and are playful with each other physically... Get over it. Unless they were having sex there standing on the beach, they did nothing wrong. Just because Thai culture thinks holding hands is an act of indecency and should not be done, does not make it so for foreigners. Making laws for certain types of behavior will only undermine the tourism as well as restricting couples showing affection. If i want to make out with the wife or mistress there on the beach, I do not see a problem as long as it is not showing body parts and is not sex.
  7. You did not read it.. I already have seen a doctor and he identified the cause and species.
  8. If it was originating from another country. i would agree with you. But most likely, someone snitched here for a commision or competition.
  9. The Dermatologist seemed to know immediately what was the cause based on the injury site. Showed me pictures of them that matched mine. I am trying a cream he gave to prevent infections. He said it gets bad for 3 days then will begin to heal. If i do not see improvement i will of course see another type of doctor. But what the Dermatologist said makes sense. This bug has acid on its skin that causes these burns. It has no need to bite. Just touching you is enough. Everything I read about it seems consistent with what is happening and what the doctor said.
  10. Internet said they are most active during the rainy season
  11. no.. it is only on one leg... the bend in the leg allowed the one part to touch another part of my leg and it also got burned
  12. My new years eve was spent with my Thai family. It was relaxing. On New Years day I noticed a small red area behind the knee at the joint. I thought maybe i had gotten bitten by a sand flea that has happened to me many times before at the southern beaches. A day later the red rash double in size and spread to another of my leg behind the knee. 2 days later, then skin begin blistery and it appears there is a big part of the skin that is dead on both places. I did not see any particular sign of a bite mark consistent with this type of reaction. Today is the 3rd day. The pain is incredible now. I finally went to a skin doctor to see what was happening. The doctor said I had not been bitten by anything. But instead this tiny bug must had crawled across my leg at the afflicted area. The ROVO Beetle seems to be common in Thailand although after more than 13 years here I have never seen or heard about it. Apparently, the skin if this beetle is toxic acid. ove beetles are small, segmented insects with black heads and tails and orange abdomens. They are poisonous and can cause a rash or blisters on the skin if their venom comes into contact with it. The venom is acidic and irritating, and is known as Pederin. Symptoms can include: Fever, Nausea and vomiting, and Blindness if the venom gets into the eyes. So be warned and be careful. This thing can be attracted to light and is so tiny unlike a normal beetle. If you develop any symptims like I described, seek medical attention right away. The longer you wait the worse can happen to the afflicted area. Infections are common if you do not treat it.
  13. Wow really? You use MAGA to support your theory? Yet, This has been happening with Biden at the helm. Amazing how you put your anti-trump into everything you read. How about looking at the facts of the story instead? The man had been collecting and making weapons all through Biden admin. Putting stuff up that was anti-Biden/Harris. That does not make him a MAGA supporter. It just makes him one of those men who saw the current admin for what it really was, a farce with a demented old man running the show and a twit who could not say anything political without a snicker as his sidekick.
  14. Siriraj let me rent a CPAP machine to test them.. I rented 4 different ones for up to a month for all of them... cost was like 50 baht a day... Unfortunately for me the CPAP could not push the air past the blockage so none of them worked. My mom uses a CPAP and swears by it. Claims once she began using it her sleep apnea disappeared. Siriraj ear, nose and throat clinic would be the ones you should talk to. They would most likely accept the test you had as well. They accepted mine from another hospital.
  15. Wow.. You guys only seek to find the flaws when the flaws are with yourselves in your reading or listening to things. Trump did not want Alll immigrants expelled. He wanted all the illegal immigrants expelled. All those starting with the worst/criminals and those already told to leave the country but ran instead. Then focus on the millions who have no permission to stay in the US and are without Visas. I really do not understand how hard that is to comprehend? You guys see it and comment on it constantly about foreigners in Thailand who have not checked in or have not renewed their Visas here. You post things saying to get the trash out or criminals who are illegal in Thailand. Why then, because Americans want the same in their country do you twist it into something bad?
  16. i wonder if the cash they found in his car will be enough to pay for the damages he caused in his tirade through the highways..
  17. I am not so sure malicious damage caused by an immature angry paid driver would be covered by insurance. Hmm... I do hope the company fires the guy though. He does not have the temperment to be a driver responsible for many lives every day. AS does so many paid drivers in cars and bikes these days
  18. i have never seen a Thai drink the red Fanta... So I am assuming it is only used to appease Buddha in offerings.
  19. Surprised to see the police presence there. It used to be legal to release those into the air until some complaints caused them to be banned. One has to wonder where he even bought it and if it was purchased inside Thailand. The sale should be made illegal also if they are illegal to use. I hope the kid learned some kind of lesson. Clearly he has no respect for any authority. Or he must have been watching how the Thai kids get away with everything and thought he could as well.
  20. What a stupid comment to make to try and justify the attack. Anyone who has been to Lopburi and tried to get within a foot of a baby makes them run away. Let alone handling them. Being protective, yeah possibly, but not handling them for sure.
  21. Yep. clearly the man stuffed himself head first into the drainage pipe and got stuck with legs protruding. Must have lost his gold in the drain and tried to dig it out. hmph.
  22. I suggest you have a sleep test done at the hospital. A few thousand baht for a room overnight and a couple thousand for the test. I will explain why. For a couple years I would wake up in the middle of the night and be unable to sleep for another hour or 2. I thought maybe noises or needing to go to the toilet was the reason. I mentioned it to my doctor and they began testing me for the reasons. I tried sleeping pills and tried antihistamines and even tried CPAP machines that push air into my mouth while I sleep but nothing changed. Finally, I agreed to a sleep test in the hospital. It turned out that my breathing would stop many times an hour and that would wake me up. They call it sleep apnea. X Rays showed I had blockage in my nose and throat. I just recently had surgery to clear the blockage in my nose and throat. Prior to the surgery they tried to get a camera inside through my nose. They were unable to do so and later told me that my airway was blocked 80%. I never thought this could have happened. I breathed normally I thought. But in sleep the position of the body and the way you breathe changes. Throat becomes more relaxed. Since the surgery, I have been able to sleep all night a full 8 or even 9 hours without waking up. Whereas usually i was awake within 3 or 4 hours. So perhaps you should consider what I wrote here and find a serious approach. A sleep clinic can not help you if they do not know the cause of your problem.
  23. I do not see what is your point. What excuse is there for the driver to come out of the car kicking and punching him to begin with? I seriously doubt the foreigner hit the driver inside the car. There is no excuse that can be said that justifies what the driver did initially. As for the continued beating, the foreigner may have done things that led to continuing hitting him and getting a weapon (the signs) but even still, the foreigner is unarmed and mostly defending himself. A taxi driver must be prepared to accept if a passenger wants to cancel the ride or change the destination and to do so without violence. This driver needs to be sent to prison for assault with a weapon with intent to cause bodily harm. Let him rot in a jail cell for a few years for losing his temper and then attacking the foreigner.
  24. Something really needs to be done about this gang problem in Pattaya. The police make arrests only on the worst of what they do but fail to address the real problem. Why aren't parents held accountable for those that are out late in the evening drinking or racing or causing problems?
  25. In Pattaya really? Perhaps that is the only time or the best time to catch some of the tenants at home and with money in their pockets.
