DR. TRAVIS SUGGESTED THAT WHEN GOING TO THE NAIL SALONS WOMEN SHOULD BRING THEIR OWN MANICURE INSTRUMENTS.  HE SHOULD HAVE ALWAYS SUGGESTED THAT THEY BRING THEIR OWN NAIL POLISH.

EVEN THOUGH THE SALONS CAN STERILIZE THE INSTRUMENTS, THERE IS NO WAY THEY CAN STERILIZE THE BRUSHES THAT ARE IN THE BOTTLES.   IT IS VERY POSSIBLE THAT BACTERIA/GERMS CAN BE PASSED FROM CLIENT TO CLIENT FROM THE BRUSHES.  THEREFORE, BRING YOUR OWN POLISH ALONG WITH YOUR OWN INSTRUMENTS IF YOU WANT TO BE DOUBLY SAFE. 

Why wasnt Hep C included in this piece. Hep C is always ignored by the medical community. As if it’s taboo. At least this woman knew she had something wrong had it been Hep C she might never had known.
