>> pissing in a patients surgical wound <<
I’m not a medical person, but I’ve heard the following:
Because almost all urine is sterile, the military teaches soldiers that in a battlefield emergency, urine may be used to clean wounds.
Did your medical training teach you about the safety and efficacy of using urine to clean wounds?
Inquiring minds want to know. Seriously!
In 1971 when I was in Army flight school, during the survival, escape, & evasion bloc of training, we were taught that one’s own urine could be used to irrigate one’s own wounds or cuts.
After that came the poisonous snake pit but that’s another story.
Because almost all urine is sterile, the military teaches soldiers that in a battlefield emergency, urine may be used to clean wounds.

I learned that as a young boy when on vacation on Galveston Island TX. A guy was severely stung by jelly fish and had to be pulled from the water. Life guard had several men gather around and urinate on the guy to dilute to venom and pain.
A couple of years later, my younger sister was also hit by jelly fish. I carried her out of the water and quickly urinated on the red stripes on her legs made by the tentacles. Dad carried her to the car and nearby hospital, where they said the urine helped further injury. ...She ended up with no permanent scars on her legs.
(No. This isn’t a Brian Williams tall tale.)
