Was gonna say, next stop is the ER. An ongoing reaction that is getting worse could be a sign of a bacterial or chemical exposure that could become dangerous.
My husband worked as a manager at a Leslies Pool supply for 7 years. He saw it all the time. If the water is "clear" they call it good. Pool maintenance companies will dump and run. They put waaaay too many chemicals in the water bc if they ut too little and the water looks dirty theyll be fired. If they put insane amounts of chlorine in it and its "clear" they have a happy customer. Safe chlorine levels are 1-3. An airbnb we stayed at with a salt water pool managed by a pool company measured at a 12. Thats shock level. You could literally take a dump in it and it would be fine. Now we bring a basic pool test kit with us. Its really simple and saves us from swimming in toxic levels of chlorine.
The chemicals wouldn’t cause a rash to spread like that it over days, it looks more like ringworm than anything tbh. High chlorine/bromine levels normally make your whole body break out, not patches that spread over time. I’ve had customers call my pinch a penny asking for the difference bc I work in a richer area where people like to blame others for their lack of common sense 😂
@@13lilsykos I got an infection at a hot tub due a germ called Pseudomonas aeruginosa and it was found inside the hot tub. Tbh, it is fine having different opinions because this could be caused by something else other than chlorine but ring worms or pseudomonas aeruginosa just like what happened to me or other causes
For those who can't be bothered to find the updates: it wasn't the hot tub. They started a camp fire with some wood they found lying around, it turned out to be poison ivy or something. I don't remember what it was exactly, just that it's smoke is what caused the rash.
@@ramennoodlefantasyhow did 3 urgent care centres reject them?? if this was the uk or something you would most definitely be seen to for something like this
Update: if you want to know what caused the rash, they literally just had a campfire before the hot tub “incident”and were burning poison ivy or poison sumac for the campfire. That’s what caused the rash.
If you have a rash with swelling please go to an ER if urgent care doesn’t take you. This needs care immediately since it could be allergic reaction but more likely chemical reaction or biological infection of some kind.
I hate urgent cares for this exact scenario. You need to get in quick but theyre always backed up and when you finally do get into one. The help they offer is basically no help at all. Then they bill your insurance more than necessary to the point you have to pay extra. All for them to do nothing for you .
Urgent Care is a joke.. I went for non emergency and was told to go to ER waited 10 hours to be seen then saw a Physician assistant and 3 hours later..nada... My bill was 9000 for what??? Ua test and blood test
This happened to my boss once. Make sure u test the alkaline levels in the water because that’s what he did and the people that tested it told him he was basically bathing in acid. And he also got a very bad rash. So yeah alkaline/acidity levels are rlly important.
I never even try to go to the doctor in the USA unless my actual life is at risk. Meanwhile in the Caribbean I can see a specialist for like $40 so I go whenever I feel a bit dramatic 😂😅😊
Hot tip from a former hotel clerk: if the jacuzzi water is extra foamy, it is either dirty and caused by skin cells and oils or the ph is off from the chemicals.
Hot tub was perfectly fine. These two are completely ignorant. That's the end of the story. If you find out what truly happened you'll want to smack them for talking shit on the hot tub being dirty. They assumed before thinking. These people vote.....
also as a reminder its suggested you take a shower before going into hot tubs to wash away any oils, lotions, or anything that can contaminate hot tubs.
I have licensed self catering. My hot tub: 1. Four visits a week from a qualified company for water level checks 2. Monthly laboratory testing of water samples 3. In-line chemical treatment and filter 4. Runs 24/7 at 48c to stop bacterial spread 5. Filter change every two months I've not had to change the water in six months thanks to this, and it's still clean!
As somebody who tests spa water, please just drain the water every 3 to 4 months. It's so much easier and cheaper to take care of it yourself if you do the tiniest bit of research. Plus I can't imagine how expensive it is to keep it at that temperature and keep it running 24/7. Would it not be cheaper to drain and fill?
"Wildly uncomfortable, but I still serve" 😂🤣 exactly how I felt when I had my first ever allergic reaction to a random ass plant at a carnivorous plant show one time lmfaoooo
That’s crazy shit, here in Mexico, I can walk into see a doctor with no health insurance, no appointment, and literally pay nothing and he will see me for a rash and give me a prescription. Wish you luck.
Healthcare in the US is terrible. It can take several days to get an appointment. You have to go to hospital emergency room to be seen same day, but he wit can take hours. Dr offices don't have prescription medicine available. You have to wait at the drug store for it to be fulfilled. It cost a lot to be seen by Dr and in the thousands for test and hospital visits.
Nobody who has free health care can "just walk in" in the world. Every single country that has free healthcare is backed up for months for even basic procedures.
The testing strips for hot tubs are a good indicator ahead of time. I test one the more precise way every day, but after having balanced them for a while when I go somewhere new I use a testing strip before I get in to see if the pool/maintenance team are balancing correctly
It wasn't from the hot tub (this is an update) they got poison ivy because the burned it in the fire they made beforehand. At least it didn't get in their lungs! 🥴😬
Yeah, basically, these idiots are idiots. Which considering the rest of their content that gets randomly shoved on youtube shorts feed.. Unsurprising honestly
Dermatologist aren’t at urgent cares lol. It’s a standard physician and they will do a recommendation to a dermatologist if they find fit. This is why you need a PCP but 90% of young kids don’t. Also urgent cares can turn you away for any reasons since they are not held to the EMTALA law
I can’t tell you how many times “urgent care” has sent me to the ER after taking payment for something they knew they couldn’t fix or were just going to send me there anyway. I actually had a receptionist tell me just leave their just going to farm it out and charge you!
Yeah I saw a comment say just go to your doctor but that’s hella ignorant because I had cut myself and needed stiches and they let me bleed out for an hour in the er there was blood all over the floor I was a little girl and nobody else was there but like one person when a doctor saw me he said oh my god and rushed me in it was so urgent I wasn’t even given any anesthetics and they sewed me up it’s healed now but I will never forget how shitty that service was to the point they forgot about me and brought me into a tiny room with no bed just a chair to do it apparent they weren’t even informed that type of emergency was happening and as a seven year old I thought it was weird the nurse receptionist was mean mugging me as a literal child sometimes some era are just wack completely messy or mistreating patients they didn’t give me any after care or tips nothing just sewed me up and wheeled me out usually they do follow up appointments or something but they were so messy that was over ten years ago but I’ll never forget it
@@ForteFaieyI'd imagine the united states, my family had a very similar experience as my dad was once dehydrated to the point where his intestines were in knots and he was throwing up and coughing blood for hours in the waiting room of the ER and the receptionist didn't seem to care
They're, and usually urgent cares will wave charges for patients transferred to the er. I worked at one, and that was standard practice. I'd be surprised if it wasn't elsewhere.
I feel so grateful that in my country, whenever an issue u just go to the hospitals which are free btw.. And they admit u in the wards and there the specialist will come to consult u..(dermatologist, cardiologist, medical doctors, surgical doctors..any specialist) and u get care that u need and after u r okay, they discharge u...
I'm Jealous. Yeah I'm gonna be honest. The US sucks rn. I lost my insurance, and the hospital bills are hopelessly expensive. Or any type of medical care for that matter.
I always had a mini dream of one day owning a hot tub with my future home so I could be the annoying person that posts a selfie from my hot tub in a blizzard and multiple feet of snow but thanks to climate change that probs won’t happen by the time I can afford one if ever lol 🙃
@@hen4716 according to records it hasn’t snowed on Christmas since 2009. Regardless of the holiday it’s still a scary realization. Plus it’s sad. Kids out here don’t even get snow days anymore, that should be a memory every kid should have at least once in the North East US! People called me crazy when I mentioned I noticed it years ago because they thought I was trying to take a political stance and not genuinely concerned about the fact that science was actively presenting itself. We’ve seen 70-90° days in January in the majority of the past decade. It’s terrifying and sad at the same time. I mean I get that some people are happy that they don’t have to shovel driveways or scrap cars as much but it genuinely affects our local environment! In a dense wooded state the snow storms are crucial to the health of our trees, grass, soil, and local crops! But people are like “it’s not so bad” because they don’t have to bundle up and shovel. Like now instead of medium sized snow throughput the season we may get one big storm a year and so far this winter all snow that was forecasted turned into rain which turned into flood warnings and the lightest dustings that were gone before I could even check. Not even enough to throw a tiny snowball yet. It deeply concerns me.
I gave up on urgent care after I waited 45 min in an empty lobby just for them to tell me absolutely nothing. I have full coverage and supplied them with all of my insurance information, yet still got a bill a month later for $750. It’s honestly such a joke.
$750 is highway robbery and you had insurance and you didn't receive the medical care you needed.. the decline of medical services seems a global epidemic...
I’d call & discuss that with the billing dept at the urgent care. You may want to call your insurance prior to that to verify what your coverage includes. I know not all urgent cares accept my insurance but they should have told you that if that was the case.
@@retrocuber295at least at the end of the wait you actually get help and dont lose all your savings, home, 401k etc. Imagine being an American, having to wait/getting poor care/issues going years being misdiagnosed/ignored/improper tests ran and you still owe thousands if not hundreds of thousands for it. Even into the millions in some cases. And they will take their money from you. I work with Canadians and they are constantly disgusted/suprised at the stories they hear from their American coworkers.
Government is the problem with our Healthcare system. Government regulations have caused 70% of all Healthcare cost to go towards administrative oversight/Government compliance. Also, urgent cares are private non-emergency clinics. They needed to go to an emergency department, or stop acting like children. What did driving to 6 medical offices accomplish?
Watch their other vids posted after this. They went from blaming the hot tub to blaming the sticks they used for their camp fire to blaming poison ivy😭🤦🏽♂️
Don't try for a dermatologist. Just go to any Urgent Care. They handle a wide variety of issues. Not as many as an ER, but still a huge variety. I know it's a skin issue y'all are having, but a dermatologist is a SPECIALIST. There is ALMOST ALWAYS a long wait to get in to see a specialist. Straight-up URGENT CARE or ER (if it's a VERY problematic issue) is the way to go. I retired from a hospital, so I promise it's the way to go. EDIT: This advice is for the U.S. ONLY!
Fun fact they call this "Hot Tub Folliculitis" you can get this in basically any body of water that people have been. People get it from water thats usually been stagnant or exposed to prolonged heat (Fountains, hot tubs, heated hotel pools, etc) I got it once when I was a kid from a hotel pool in Arkansas. It can be very painful so I'm feeling for you guys.
@@sarhaaaaa you're totally right. I should've checked because I knew it didn't sound right but I remember my mom telling the story any time we went to a hotel and referring to it as Tuberculosis 😂
@@gigglingchicken8444 they make like a medicated lotion/balm thing you have to rub basically all over your body and you can use a certain bath soak (can't remember the name of it) you can sit in, OR in poverty fashion a good ole baking soda sits bath as my grandma called them
in Germany you would be looked at, checked, diagnosed and treated within like 30 minutes And it would heal in like 2-3 business days Plus you would need to pay like 50€ for the cream and check-up
paying for just 1 cream 50 bucks in Germany sounds more like a scam if you have an attest from the doc you can just go with them to buy the medic at the apothecary cheaper so i doubt it would cost 50 bucks in Germany
bro where do you live in germany? (honest question) if your not already a a patient you can basically forget getting medical treatment for not-emergencies at all... (karlsruhe experience) 😢
It's not the same in all of Germany???? When I was around like 7 I twisted my hand backwards and we had to get it checked at like 10pm I think Never been there before and with in like half an hour everything was done didn't cost that much don't remember how much though other thing which I remember more knee cap said bye and needed to rush to the hospital with an ambulance The whole thing 10€ X-Ray and everthing@@isurfer12345 (Sachsen-Anhalt, keine ahnung wie es da abläuft)
What country is the airbnb you went to at? Thankfully I've never experience this. Instead it was from a public pool 😢 I'm sorry you guys are experiencing this, but the fact that both of you are still laughing and joking around instead of being absolutely frustrated while having a rash makes you amazing people. Slay ✨
So for a lot of people in the US, before immediately going to Urgent Care for something like this, try going to your local pharmacy (CVS, Rite Aid, so on...) if it's for something like a rash. You can talk to the Pharmacist who can recommend OTC products for immediate use. Some may even have a Clinical Pharmacist who will be able to write a Rx (though if they actually will is another issue), but they WILL be able to tell you to go to an UC if you need to. Basically, if they went into a pharmacy first, they would have been told it was Poison Ivy much faster than driving around trying to squeeze into a same day appointment, looking for a place that takes their insurance (unless they have SAG/AFRA insurance). Assumed they are on a trip since at an AirBNB. PharmDs are the ones keeping up to date with medication advances while MDs keep up to date on medical issues which means even Retail Pharmacists need to have a general understanding of medical issues and diagnoses, moreso if they are a Clinical Pharmacist who can have patients of their own.
As a former spa technician and someone still in the industry, that looks like folliculitis from low sanitation levels. Bacteria gets in your pores. Head and shoulders or a body wash with zinc helps… If the spa water has any green discoloration it probably means low sanitation levels or high copper either are not ideal and should be avoided.
Sorry to ruin your party but they bought those likes… you really think 2600 people would leave a like without a single reply to your comment? Also there’s 3.8k total comments and about 200k likes spread throughout the comments… use your logic next time. Unless you’re a women then you don’t have any to begin with.. sad days.
It might just be chlorine burns, I got this a while back under my eyes, lasted maybe 1-2 weeks, just make sure to wash area properly and moisturize, try not to have anything rub against so it doesn’t get irritated, and bag balm and ice helps as well👍🏽
YIKES. My boss always completely empties, scrubs and refills her hot tubs for her rented flats after every booking… because otherwise that is so unsanitary and gross 😭
I wonder why she doesn’t shock it instead. Water is a precious resource, some areas (like mine) have shortages so treating the water to be safe makes more sense than replacing it to me.
That’s what she tells you. You don’t even understand how much water and chemicals that would cost to refill daily. Hotel pools don’t even empty the water 99.9 percent of the time.
Ahhh I hate this!!! I got contact dermatitis from a hot tub before-it was all over my thigh, like a bunch of red, bumpy spots (they were very painful). Took WEEKS to go away with prescription cream and I still have literal scars from it. I would compare it to acne in a way; hopefully you don’t have it!
I went for valentine's day to this really nice "hotel" that had a hot tub under the bed. Out of nowhere i felt an awful pinch on my lower back, in a few seconds i got these tini red marks just like in the video. Took weeks to heal and i have a scar, almost a year later! It being a very famous and expensive place it didn't even cross my mind it could've been something i caught! Luckily i had the right medication with me and it didn't spread
@@molotochnik.i Contact dermatitis is a lot like acne, I personally had a lot of it (and it was bad, I needed to take oral steroids, too)-it was all over my thigh. It’s possible scratching could’ve caused the scars (since contact dermatitis is a lot itchier than acne), but I refrained from scratching a lot. Also, they’re just minor dark patches, so they’re probably just natural side effects.
woah! this exact thing happend to me, and i did swim in 2 diffrent pools. that has probably caused it. i luckly wen’t to a clinic to get my medicine and now i’m feeling better.
If you guys haven’t seen the other videos or don’t know they didn’t actually get the rashes from the hot tub but because they used sticks with poison ivy or something like it on them. So not the hot tub but the smoke. Hot tub might’ve helped though who knows.
That makes sense but it doesn't that they couldn't get seen, ESPECIALLY if his face was puffing up. A friend put poison ivy brush (probably) in a fire pit before I came over and had rash and face swelling. I had fires at his house before, didn't go anywhere or eat anything different, but the face swelling was okay here are steroids asap and if it gets any worse ER you go. It didn't. Later on he told me he burned brush before I came over. 🙄 He did drive me to the urgent care though so we're cool. ❤ Took months to get into the specialist though and healed by then of course.
I used to work for a large medical group here in Chicago, patients were never turned away for urgent care unless it was after hours or they were at capacity. Even then a patient with a rash would sometimes be advised by clinical staff to go to the ER. Specialty doctors need consult visits before you can even get a regular appointment. And if you have an HMO insurance plan you need referrals from your pcp. If you have a PPO you can make an appointment but be ready to pay specialty Dr money. So in this specific scenario, I would’ve gone to the ER if no next day appointments were open with my primary doctor. Cause I don’t fuck around when it comes to rashes. It’s usually not very serious, until it is.. get me?
In the U.K. You would be told to wait 6 weeks for a GP appointment then if you are ultra lucky you can wait 3 years to see a dermatologist if your GP will allow it
I really hope you guys found someone to help, those look uncomfy :( They probably wouldn’t take yu because they don’t know if it’s contagious. it seems like it probably is. Urgent care are usually small places and it would probably spread like wild fire
make sure you report it to the booking platform you booked through - if you booked through airbnb for example - call them and file an incident report. they will ensure you get made whole and the listing is paused til this is fixed. don’t forget!!
this is called hot tub folliculitis it can lead to something called sepsis. which is absolutely life-threatening. what they need is a 4% chlorhexidine gluconate bath and some iv antibiotics.
hii! so i had a VERY similar experience with an airbnb, and your rash is most likely hot tub folliculitis. it goes away if a few days, and can even randomly come back weeks later. you wont die, don’t worry
I know not everybody has access to their own pool but having grown up going to my grandmas to swim made me never want to get in another pool, like literally piss, aids, anything you can think of was just cookin up in that hot tub. I remember my mom telling me never to get into one when I was really young but I’ve never seen anybody actually go through this!! How terrifying
My family members went on a cruise and there were bed bugs in many cabins and the ship was full of people like these poor darling's! Apparently the cruise line didn't really care much either and were charging people for anti itch creams that were a result of their dirty ship. 🤮 Hope you feel better soon ❤
@@DctrGizmo I used to like them pre Covid but after seeing the photos of the people on the particular cruise mentioned earlier I'm not so sure now!!! 🤮❤️
Omg I sometimes try to book places with hot tubes but am soooo glad I never went into them, not trusting how clean they really are 😅 hope you complained to the AirBnb Host!
This happened to me and my friend after we were in a hot tub 😭😭 our rash didn’t look exactly like this but it spread on our arms and torso - my friend had it a lot worse than I did but it just went away after a while, we probably should have seen a doctor tho
They shouldn't have blamed the hot tub before figuring out what they had. It turned out to be poison sumac. They made a campfire and used the sticks from a poison sumac tree. Thats super dangerous because you can breathe in the poison when you burn it. And her boyfriend said the rash is on his face, which could mean he breathed it in while standing close to the campfire. They should seek help ASAP if they have any coughing or trouble breathing. Inhaling smoke from burning poison sumac can be deadly.
Yup I have a severe poison sumac allergy I can’t even touch mangoes because of it. It’s so uncomfortable my face swells and I get the worst itchy hives that last weeks even with high dose steroids orally.
Immediately after being in any public pool or hot tub, or random river or lake, you should have a shower and thoroughly wash yourself, not just to get the chlorine off but also to get off any potential bacteria, parasites, and anything else that may have been in that water. It should be a long and thorough washing.
Its wild to me that clinics in the US can just reject you... like wtf is someones urgency not urgent enough? Theres a clinic in my apartment that I can just go to any time and get treated without an appoinment, just show up and get it done.
Anywhere that's already got way too many people than they can see, They didn't go to an emergency room they went to an Urgent care and a Dermatologist which is different. They're open for a set amount of hours and then close so if they've already got tons of patients they won't be able to fit you in. Emergency room is way more expensive but 24 hours and they'll always see you eventually. More populated of an area you live, The harder it is to just walk in and be seen. No different than places populated in other countries with free healthcare, If you don't use an emergency room you can be waiting a long time to ever see a doctor. Where I live it isn't an issue because it's low population
A rash can definitely be urgent. Some are no big deal, if you know whats causing it & can control it yourself. A spreading rash with unknown cause or from a known cause that you can't get rid of needs to be diagnosed asap & usually treated. Some rashes are more dangerous than others. The urgent care was either really busy or thought they needed specific care that they couldn't provide. They can only do so much. Although steroids & anti-itch cream would probably help this & most rashes. @@somethingsomething404
You need to dry it out so the oils don't spread and it gets worse You can use rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer. Any alcohol based products. I work on a farm and have gotten it more times than I can count And have gone to the ER twice for it DO NOT USE ANY KIND OF CREAM!! it'll spread like a wild fire!! I'm so sorry yall got it. It is seriously the worst thing ever (Gonna comment this on all of your videos in hopes you see it. Hopefully you've already gotten the help you need)
Alcohol can cause other issues, you can use cornstarch to absorb the oil. it will pull into the powder and pill off like dough. Other thing you can use is calamine lotion (in a pinch), hydrocortisone followed by Neosporin and a oral benadryl are all good options.
@@M377owso why would alcohol not be a good option? I ask because anything for buring or iching I have used products in the past that dose not contain alochol and the iching and burning can spread and the only thing that worked was alcohol.
@@amalieshelby Good that it worked for you but some people have very delicate skin. Alcohol is drying on the skin. It can also kill your good white blood cells if you put it in an open wound. Which is why it’s recommended to use saline solution to clean any wounds as hydrogen peroxide will also denature white blood cells.
I worked under dermatologist for years.. Generally it takes a referral and quite some time to get an appointment with one. Did you stop at a Real Urgent care? They would’ve had you all taken care of. 😢 there’s generally a wait but same day care..
@@epic7224 I think what they mean is where those two kept saying they were going to "Urgent Care" but were actually going to different dermatologists instead. Not that there's fake ones but rather these two never actually went to an Urgent Care just to different dermatologists and kept calling it Urgent Care.
It sounds like they went around to various Urgent Care Centers. Urgent care centers aren't emergency medical facilities or like going to your regular doctor, they're kind of a midpoint. If the wanted to see a dermatologist They would need a referral to book an appointment dermatologist from like their general practitioner. They couldn't just walk-in to a specialist and get an appointment. These guys were apparently burning poison sumac. They should have gone to the ER.
When i moved i to my house there was a spa and my kids had abath theu ende dup with a similar rash thet ended up in saws theu had ti have antibiotics as it was a bacteria from it not being used for a long time i hope u get it sorted
My only ONLY issue is we live in an era where we have this nifty thing called Teledoc. Where even if for whatever reason a clinic or hospital rejects you, you can still do an over the phone appointment. I cannot say how much of a clutch that’s been and it’s personally cheaper than going to the clinics and you don’t need insurance. Other than that ooof rough situation.
And what are they going to say about a rash? That they can’t see details of… can’t test, or do anything about. They’re gonna ask you to come in. So why waist the time
@@superddawg actually they can do a lot. My brother was breaking out and they do a vid call with you. They ask you to move the camera closer and get lighting. They’ll ask you a series of questions pertaining to your issue and they can prescribe antibiotics for you to pick up at your closest pharmacy. They can do enough in this case. You don’t /always/ get tests done and if you think that, you’ve either been scammed or haven’t gone to clinics. They don’t ‘always’ take samples for everything. Either way they were DENIED entry to several places they were kicked out. Therefore they wasted time regardless 🙃 so unless you have a valid remark I recommend reading and listening. It’s very good skills to use. I’m someone who has used teledoc myself for several different reasons including DENTAL :) they gave me top notch dental antibiotics the dentist were impressed upon getting there after (trismis leading to a wisdom tooth removal). My bother has had rashes, abscess, strep throat, etc (he’s been the expensive child) and my mother has used it for herself. Clinics aren’t emergency rooms. The telecocs helps get you started on anitibotics or at least seen by a certified doctor/nurse sooner. It’s not a way to avoid going to the doctor entirely but it’s a great temporary till you get in to see an actual doctor (technically your primary care physician) Though the clinics they went to failed them because they either were too busy or assumed they had something spreadable. Either way a virtual doc is better than nothing and is cheaper like I’ve stated priorly. Granted they saw someone eventually I see; it’s a future reference especially for people who probably can’t get to a doctor for whatever reason. Worse case they will assist setting up an appointment for you near by you and you’ll still pay less for a consult than if you went to the clinic and all they do is IV you and give you a sandwich to say you’re fine (trust me it’s expensive my mom just went through it a month ago lol)
@@superddawg you also can’t really “test” a rash. You can ask a series of questions like if it’s a burning feeling or like stabbing needles. You ask a series of questions like what were you doing leading up to this. Where were you last. What did you eat, drink, etc. you can’t really sample test a rash. But doctors are trained to know the set of symptoms and description of how something may react and how. It’s more of process of elimination to narrow down the issue and less of always science. Upon explaining their trip they probably were told to describe the plant they used sticks from and then they worked from there to figure out how 1 thing lead to another. I don’t really care about medical stuff but my stepmom is a nurse and trying to open her own clinic and my best friend has been in college for medical billing or something and yeah I won’t lie I’ve helped him on his school work :/
(Pseudomonas Dermatitis/Folliculitis) Yes, even in hot water, little buggy microbes fester and thrive in them. This happens when contaminated water stays in chamber or reservoir that hold water in the hot tub and mixed with new water or the water was not changed, and they just went inside the skin soup from previous users.
I stayed at a luxury timeshare in Myrtle Beach. The stay was great but I got the same thing from the hot tub. My dude a skin graph. I was diagnosed with Pseudomonas Dermatitis - Folliculitis. Whenever I would take a hot shower, the rash areas felt better the hotter the shower. Which was bad because those tiny microbes in the skin. Horrible experience lesson learned.
that happened to me too my face started to itch and i scratched it and then it was all over my body i went to a doctor and got a prescription hope you guys feel better
I think most skin infections are bacterial or fungal so in a pinch, if you can’t get an appointment right away, putting on anti fungal cream (athletes foot stuff) or using hydrogen peroxide on at least the irritated spots should help to kill the infection and slow the spread
Hydrogen peroxide is not good to use on a rash. You should never use it on an infected wound either, because it kills healthy skin cells along with the infected ones
I'm always in Airbnbs and hotels, all luxurious ones. My mom never forgets to bring those cleaning agents, She always tells us to spray and sanitize everything. Last time, she cleaned the bathtub and holds it in for 1 hour and rinsed it with water. That's why we never got those infections. Hope this helps!
Pro tip: If you've gone to 3 separate urgent care centers and never were able to meet with a doctor, the hospital should be your next choice.
It's because they never actually went.
Agreed
Or you could take some Benadryl, use some Cortisone cream and watch it go away by tomorrow
@@contentcopyeah they kept saying they're going to urgent cares but then said they were going to dermatologists those are two different people

Safe chlorine levels are 1-3. An airbnb we stayed at with a salt water pool managed by a pool company measured at a 12. Thats shock level. You could literally take a dump in it and it would be fine.
Now we bring a basic pool test kit with us. Its really simple and saves us from swimming in toxic levels of chlorine.
smart idea o:
The chemicals wouldn’t cause a rash to spread like that it over days, it looks more like ringworm than anything tbh. High chlorine/bromine levels normally make your whole body break out, not patches that spread over time.

For those who can't be bothered to find the updates: it wasn't the hot tub. They started a camp fire with some wood they found lying around, it turned out to be poison ivy or something. I don't remember what it was exactly, just that it's smoke is what caused the rash.

If you have a rash with swelling please go to an ER if urgent care doesn’t take you. This needs care immediately since it could be allergic reaction but more likely chemical reaction or biological infection of some kind.
It was poison ivy smoke exposure
At our Airbnb in Germany we had chlorine tabs and very clear instructions on how to use and clean the hot tub. 👍🏻
Well Germany has always been.... Superior.
I hate urgent cares for this exact scenario. You need to get in quick but theyre always backed up and when you finally do get into one. The help they offer is basically no help at all. Then they bill your insurance more than necessary to the point you have to pay extra. All for them to do nothing for you .
Urgent Care is a joke.. I went for non emergency and was told to go to ER waited 10 hours to be seen then saw a Physician assistant and 3 hours later..nada... My bill was 9000 for what??? Ua test and blood test
That's why you go see your normal doctor for non emergencies they have a rash not a broken bone.

Hot tip from a former hotel clerk: if the jacuzzi water is extra foamy, it is either dirty and caused by skin cells and oils or the ph is off from the chemicals.
The worst part is that if they add scents ppl just assume it’s from a soap or something and not literal primordial soup 🤢
They found out, It actually had nothing to do with the hot tub. Right before they got in they had been burning poison ivy in a campfire.

I have licensed self catering. My hot tub:
1. Four visits a week from a qualified company for water level checks
2. Monthly laboratory testing of water samples
3. In-line chemical treatment and filter
4. Runs 24/7 at 48c to stop bacterial spread
5. Filter change every two months
I've not had to change the water in six months thanks to this, and it's still clean!
As somebody who tests spa water, please just drain the water every 3 to 4 months. It's so much easier and cheaper to take care of it yourself if you do the tiniest bit of research. Plus I can't imagine how expensive it is to keep it at that temperature and keep it running 24/7. Would it not be cheaper to drain and fill?
4 visits a week?!? That’s insane.
Four visits a month dont you mean..?
48C is insanity. 42C, I get, 38C for children and infants, but anything above is too hot.

That’s crazy shit, here in Mexico, I can walk into see a doctor with no health insurance, no appointment, and literally pay nothing and he will see me for a rash and give me a prescription. Wish you luck.
Healthcare in the US is terrible. It can take several days to get an appointment. You have to go to hospital emergency room to be seen same day, but he wit can take hours. Dr offices don't have prescription medicine available. You have to wait at the drug store for it to be fulfilled. It cost a lot to be seen by Dr and in the thousands for test and hospital visits.
No kidding. I could call my doctor and see her the same day.

Yeah I saw a comment say just go to your doctor but that’s hella ignorant because I had cut myself and needed stiches and they let me bleed out for an hour in the er there was blood all over the floor I was a little girl and nobody else was there but like one person when a doctor saw me he said oh my god and rushed me in it was so urgent I wasn’t even given any anesthetics and they sewed me up it’s healed now but I will never forget how shitty that service was to the point they forgot about me and brought me into a tiny room with no bed just a chair to do it apparent they weren’t even informed that type of emergency was happening and as a seven year old I thought it was weird the nurse receptionist was mean mugging me as a literal child sometimes some era are just wack completely messy or mistreating patients they didn’t give me any after care or tips nothing just sewed me up and wheeled me out usually they do follow up appointments or something but they were so messy that was over ten years ago but I’ll never forget it

Kids out here don’t even get snow days anymore, that should be a memory every kid should have at least once in the North East US! People called me crazy when I mentioned I noticed it years ago because they thought I was trying to take a political stance and not genuinely concerned about the fact that science was actively presenting itself. We’ve seen 70-90° days in January in the majority of the past decade. It’s terrifying and sad at the same time. I mean I get that some people are happy that they don’t have to shovel driveways or scrap cars as much but it genuinely affects our local environment! In a dense wooded state the snow storms are crucial to the health of our trees, grass, soil, and local crops! But people are like “it’s not so bad” because they don’t have to bundle up and shovel. Like now instead of medium sized snow throughput the season we may get one big storm a year and so far this winter all snow that was forecasted turned into rain which turned into flood warnings and the lightest dustings that were gone before I could even check. Not even enough to throw a tiny snowball yet. It deeply concerns me.
Like it genuinely makes me consider moving to Canada or Maine just to see snow again

Go to the Emergency instead of Urgent Care. They should have told you guys that.
I gave up on urgent care after I waited 45 min in an empty lobby just for them to tell me absolutely nothing. I have full coverage and supplied them with all of my insurance information, yet still got a bill a month later for $750. It’s honestly such a joke.
$750 is highway robbery and you had insurance and you didn't receive the medical care you needed.. the decline of medical services seems a global epidemic...
I’d call & discuss that with the billing dept at the urgent care. You may want to call your insurance prior to that to verify what your coverage includes. I know not all urgent cares accept my insurance but they should have told you that if that was the case.

Don't try for a dermatologist. Just go to any Urgent Care. They handle a wide variety of issues. Not as many as an ER, but still a huge variety. I know it's a skin issue y'all are having, but a dermatologist is a SPECIALIST. There is ALMOST ALWAYS a long wait to get in to see a specialist. Straight-up URGENT CARE or ER (if it's a VERY problematic issue) is the way to go. I retired from a hospital, so I promise it's the way to go.

my whole family and i went to an airbnb that had a pool that happened to not be cleaned or have any chemicals.. we all ended up with staff.
Fun fact they call this "Hot Tub Folliculitis" you can get this in basically any body of water that people have been. People get it from water thats usually been stagnant or exposed to prolonged heat (Fountains, hot tubs, heated hotel pools, etc) I got it once when I was a kid from a hotel pool in Arkansas. It can be very painful so I'm feeling for you guys.

Thankfully I've never experience this. Instead it was from a public pool 😢
I'm sorry you guys are experiencing this, but the fact that both of you are still laughing and joking around instead of being absolutely frustrated while having a rash makes you amazing people. Slay ✨
So for a lot of people in the US, before immediately going to Urgent Care for something like this, try going to your local pharmacy (CVS, Rite Aid, so on...) if it's for something like a rash. You can talk to the Pharmacist who can recommend OTC products for immediate use. Some may even have a Clinical Pharmacist who will be able to write a Rx (though if they actually will is another issue), but they WILL be able to tell you to go to an UC if you need to.
Basically, if they went into a pharmacy first, they would have been told it was Poison Ivy much faster than driving around trying to squeeze into a same day appointment, looking for a place that takes their insurance (unless they have SAG/AFRA insurance). Assumed they are on a trip since at an AirBNB.
PharmDs are the ones keeping up to date with medication advances while MDs keep up to date on medical issues which means even Retail Pharmacists need to have a general understanding of medical issues and diagnoses, moreso if they are a Clinical Pharmacist who can have patients of their own.
As a former spa technician and someone still in the industry, that looks like folliculitis from low sanitation levels. Bacteria gets in your pores. Head and shoulders or a body wash with zinc helps… If the spa water has any green discoloration it probably means low sanitation levels or high copper either are not ideal and should be avoided.
As an EMT I thought the same.
Zinc is in Head and shoulders, right?
Selsum blue medicated works great.❤❤❤❤❤
There’s a special diagnosis, it’s literally “hot tub folliculitis” usually caused by pseudomonas.
Or just avoid hot tubs all together.

Ahhh I hate this!!! I got contact dermatitis from a hot tub before-it was all over my thigh, like a bunch of red, bumpy spots (they were very painful). Took WEEKS to go away with prescription cream and I still have literal scars from it. I would compare it to acne in a way; hopefully you don’t have it!
I went for valentine's day to this really nice "hotel" that had a hot tub under the bed. Out of nowhere i felt an awful pinch on my lower back, in a few seconds i got these tini red marks just like in the video. Took weeks to heal and i have a scar, almost a year later! It being a very famous and expensive place it didn't even cross my mind it could've been something i caught!
Luckily i had the right medication with me and it didn't spread
How does dermatitis leave a scar? Sounds like you wouldnt leave it alone
@@molotochnik.i Contact dermatitis is a lot like acne, I personally had a lot of it (and it was bad, I needed to take oral steroids, too)-it was all over my thigh. It’s possible scratching could’ve caused the scars (since contact dermatitis is a lot itchier than acne), but I refrained from scratching a lot. Also, they’re just minor dark patches, so they’re probably just natural side effects.
woah! this exact thing happend to me, and i did swim in 2 diffrent pools. that has probably caused it. i luckly wen’t to a clinic to get my medicine and now i’m feeling better.
Yup! Had the same! Went away eventually, but I looked like a red dalmatian 🥲
If you guys haven’t seen the other videos or don’t know they didn’t actually get the rashes from the hot tub but because they used sticks with poison ivy or something like it on them. So not the hot tub but the smoke. Hot tub might’ve helped though who knows.
That makes sense but it doesn't that they couldn't get seen, ESPECIALLY if his face was puffing up. A friend put poison ivy brush (probably) in a fire pit before I came over and had rash and face swelling. I had fires at his house before, didn't go anywhere or eat anything different, but the face swelling was okay here are steroids asap and if it gets any worse ER you go. It didn't. Later on he told me he burned brush before I came over. 🙄 He did drive me to the urgent care though so we're cool. ❤ Took months to get into the specialist though and healed by then of course.
I used to work for a large medical group here in Chicago, patients were never turned away for urgent care unless it was after hours or they were at capacity. Even then a patient with a rash would sometimes be advised by clinical staff to go to the ER. Specialty doctors need consult visits before you can even get a regular appointment. And if you have an HMO insurance plan you need referrals from your pcp. If you have a PPO you can make an appointment but be ready to pay specialty Dr money. So in this specific scenario, I would’ve gone to the ER if no next day appointments were open with my primary doctor. Cause I don’t fuck around when it comes to rashes. It’s usually not very serious, until it is.. get me?
ER is like 100 dollars MINIMUM and often times MUCH MORE, vs 35 at most Urgent Cares
ERs are crazy expensive, but would 100% go if had a rash spreading over my entire body
@@CertifiedClapaholicok well its help or no help in their situation :/

In the U.K. You would be told to wait 6 weeks for a GP appointment then if you are ultra lucky you can wait 3 years to see a dermatologist if your GP will allow it
I really hope you guys found someone to help, those look uncomfy :( They probably wouldn’t take yu because they don’t know if it’s contagious. it seems like it probably is. Urgent care are usually small places and it would probably spread like wild fire

They shouldn't have blamed the hot tub before figuring out what they had. It turned out to be poison sumac. They made a campfire and used the sticks from a poison sumac tree. Thats super dangerous because you can breathe in the poison when you burn it. And her boyfriend said the rash is on his face, which could mean he breathed it in while standing close to the campfire. They should seek help ASAP if they have any coughing or trouble breathing. Inhaling smoke from burning poison sumac can be deadly.
Yup I have a severe poison sumac allergy I can’t even touch mangoes because of it. It’s so uncomfortable my face swells and I get the worst itchy hives that last weeks even with high dose steroids orally.

Immediately after being in any public pool or hot tub, or random river or lake, you should have a shower and thoroughly wash yourself, not just to get the chlorine off but also to get off any potential bacteria, parasites, and anything else that may have been in that water. It should be a long and thorough washing.
PREACH!!!
I was under the assumption that everyone does this but I guess not
How did I ever make it to my thirties
Its wild to me that clinics in the US can just reject you... like wtf is someones urgency not urgent enough? Theres a clinic in my apartment that I can just go to any time and get treated without an appoinment, just show up and get it done.
A rash is not urgent… they weren’t turned away, they were told they were low priority. Other people had more serious stuff going on
Anywhere that's already got way too many people than they can see, They didn't go to an emergency room they went to an Urgent care and a Dermatologist which is different. They're open for a set amount of hours and then close so if they've already got tons of patients they won't be able to fit you in. Emergency room is way more expensive but 24 hours and they'll always see you eventually. More populated of an area you live, The harder it is to just walk in and be seen. No different than places populated in other countries with free healthcare, If you don't use an emergency room you can be waiting a long time to ever see a doctor. Where I live it isn't an issue because it's low population
A rash can definitely be urgent. Some are no big deal, if you know whats causing it & can control it yourself. A spreading rash with unknown cause or from a known cause that you can't get rid of needs to be diagnosed asap & usually treated. Some rashes are more dangerous than others. The urgent care was either really busy or thought they needed specific care that they couldn't provide. They can only do so much. Although steroids & anti-itch cream would probably help this & most rashes. @@somethingsomething404
yeah it ended up just being poison ivy and they made a whole damn video abt it 😭
Damn, hope you and your boyfriend heals, that must suck 💀
Good luck
"but i still serve" is so real 😭
Wishing you both a speedy recovery. That's a pretty raw deal, you go to a Jacuzzi just wanting to enjoy yourselves and end up sick.
Foliculitis. I had it all over my body multiple times from pools and hot tubs. Takes around 3 weeks to begin to dissipate
This couple need to be in Joey B’s videos.
You need to dry it out so the oils don't spread and it gets worse
You can use rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer. Any alcohol based products.
I work on a farm and have gotten it more times than I can count
And have gone to the ER twice for it
DO NOT USE ANY KIND OF CREAM!! it'll spread like a wild fire!!
I'm so sorry yall got it. It is seriously the worst thing ever
(Gonna comment this on all of your videos in hopes you see it. Hopefully you've already gotten the help you need)
Alcohol can cause other issues, you can use cornstarch to absorb the oil. it will pull into the powder and pill off like dough. Other thing you can use is calamine lotion (in a pinch), hydrocortisone followed by Neosporin and a oral benadryl are all good options.
Calamine lotion
Please don't do any of that
@@M377owso why would alcohol not be a good option? I ask because anything for buring or iching I have used products in the past that dose not contain alochol and the iching and burning can spread and the only thing that worked was alcohol.
@@amalieshelby Good that it worked for you but some people have very delicate skin. Alcohol is drying on the skin. It can also kill your good white blood cells if you put it in an open wound. Which is why it’s recommended to use saline solution to clean any wounds as hydrogen peroxide will also denature white blood cells.
I worked under dermatologist for years..
Generally it takes a referral and quite some time to get an appointment with one.
Did you stop at a Real Urgent care?
They would’ve had you all taken care of. 😢 there’s generally a wait but same day care..
Are there fake urgent cares?
Yeah LOL what’s a real urgent care
@@epic7224urgent care, not a dermatologist’s office
@@epic7224 I think what they mean is where those two kept saying they were going to "Urgent Care" but were actually going to different dermatologists instead. Not that there's fake ones but rather these two never actually went to an Urgent Care just to different dermatologists and kept calling it Urgent Care.
It sounds like they went around to various Urgent Care Centers. Urgent care centers aren't emergency medical facilities or like going to your regular doctor, they're kind of a midpoint. If the wanted to see a dermatologist They would need a referral to book an appointment dermatologist from like their general practitioner. They couldn't just walk-in to a specialist and get an appointment. These guys were apparently burning poison sumac. They should have gone to the ER.
When i moved i to my house there was a spa and my kids had abath theu ende dup with a similar rash thet ended up in saws theu had ti have antibiotics as it was a bacteria from it not being used for a long time i hope u get it sorted
Growing wish I would’ve had a sibling that I was close with like this 😢
My only ONLY issue is we live in an era where we have this nifty thing called Teledoc. Where even if for whatever reason a clinic or hospital rejects you, you can still do an over the phone appointment. I cannot say how much of a clutch that’s been and it’s personally cheaper than going to the clinics and you don’t need insurance. Other than that ooof rough situation.
And what are they going to say about a rash? That they can’t see details of… can’t test, or do anything about. They’re gonna ask you to come in. So why waist the time
@@superddawg actually they can do a lot. My brother was breaking out and they do a vid call with you. They ask you to move the camera closer and get lighting. They’ll ask you a series of questions pertaining to your issue and they can prescribe antibiotics for you to pick up at your closest pharmacy.
They can do enough in this case. You don’t /always/ get tests done and if you think that, you’ve either been scammed or haven’t gone to clinics. They don’t ‘always’ take samples for everything.
Either way they were DENIED entry to several places they were kicked out. Therefore they wasted time regardless 🙃 so unless you have a valid remark I recommend reading and listening. It’s very good skills to use. I’m someone who has used teledoc myself for several different reasons including DENTAL :) they gave me top notch dental antibiotics the dentist were impressed upon getting there after (trismis leading to a wisdom tooth removal). My bother has had rashes, abscess, strep throat, etc (he’s been the expensive child) and my mother has used it for herself. Clinics aren’t emergency rooms. The telecocs helps get you started on anitibotics or at least seen by a certified doctor/nurse sooner. It’s not a way to avoid going to the doctor entirely but it’s a great temporary till you get in to see an actual doctor (technically your primary care physician)
Though the clinics they went to failed them because they either were too busy or assumed they had something spreadable. Either way a virtual doc is better than nothing and is cheaper like I’ve stated priorly. Granted they saw someone eventually I see; it’s a future reference especially for people who probably can’t get to a doctor for whatever reason. Worse case they will assist setting up an appointment for you near by you and you’ll still pay less for a consult than if you went to the clinic and all they do is IV you and give you a sandwich to say you’re fine (trust me it’s expensive my mom just went through it a month ago lol)
@@superddawg you also can’t really “test” a rash. You can ask a series of questions like if it’s a burning feeling or like stabbing needles. You ask a series of questions like what were you doing leading up to this. Where were you last. What did you eat, drink, etc. you can’t really sample test a rash. But doctors are trained to know the set of symptoms and description of how something may react and how. It’s more of process of elimination to narrow down the issue and less of always science. Upon explaining their trip they probably were told to describe the plant they used sticks from and then they worked from there to figure out how 1 thing lead to another.
I don’t really care about medical stuff but my stepmom is a nurse and trying to open her own clinic and my best friend has been in college for medical billing or something and yeah I won’t lie I’ve helped him on his school work :/
@@jaxlupus that’s interesting! I didn’t know that. Thank you for informing me! I apologize
The side effects of giving out free Healthcare. The quality goes down.
(Pseudomonas Dermatitis/Folliculitis)
Yes, even in hot water, little buggy microbes fester and thrive in them. This happens when contaminated water stays in chamber or reservoir that hold water in the hot tub and mixed with new water or the water was not changed, and they just went inside the skin soup from previous users.
I thought the same exact thing!
I thought so too looked it up and their shit looks like the beginning of monkey pox or a outbreak of scabby
I stayed at a luxury timeshare in Myrtle Beach. The stay was great but I got the same thing from the hot tub. My dude a skin graph. I was diagnosed with Pseudomonas Dermatitis - Folliculitis.
Whenever I would take a hot shower, the rash areas felt better the hotter the shower. Which was bad because those tiny microbes in the skin. Horrible experience lesson learned.
Ty for that i was wondering
@@walkinragmailHOLY SHIT !!! HE NEEDED A SKIN GRAFT ?!? 😳😳😳 DUALLY NOTED
That voice crack was wild
that happened to me too my face started to itch and i scratched it and then it was all over my body i went to a doctor and got a prescription hope you guys feel better
I think most skin infections are bacterial or fungal so in a pinch, if you can’t get an appointment right away, putting on anti fungal cream (athletes foot stuff) or using hydrogen peroxide on at least the irritated spots should help to kill the infection and slow the spread
Hydrogen peroxide is not good to use on a rash. You should never use it on an infected wound either, because it kills healthy skin cells along with the infected ones
The “I still serve” got me goin 😂😂
That happened to me in Mexico. It was fine after I showered and a few hours later
Hope everything is okay
Pool technician here.. that ain’t caused by the hot tub 😂
Syphilis
Someone said that they updated and said they were burning ivy in the campfire a little before the hotub,
Looks like staph infection or MRSA to me😮
I'm always in Airbnbs and hotels, all luxurious ones. My mom never forgets to bring those cleaning agents, She always tells us to spray and sanitize everything. Last time, she cleaned the bathtub and holds it in for 1 hour and rinsed it with water. That's why we never got those infections. Hope this helps!
You can't really drain someone else's hot tub, clean with cleaning chemicals for an hour, and refill it though.
yeah but it’s a hot tub not a bath tub
This doesn’t look like an infection. Looks like a skin reaction to something.
“But I still serve” he’s so real
Thats why it is so important to run a hot/jet tub with some kind of bicarbonate cleanser before filling it up for use.
