Footbath Folly: Bleeding, footpaths, on steroids, and worried about HIV. OK. Seeing as how no one reading the post knows if you stopped bleeding (you didn't mention if it stopped), or why you are on steroids, your history, or if you were examined by a doc makes for a guessing in the dark venture. Go see a doctor and get examined. How many people use the same footpath?
