"Surviving Deadly Sepsis: Man's Coma Journey from Ingrown Hair"

The NHS has issued official advice on safely removing ingrown hairs after a man was left in a coma with a low survival rate due to blood poisoning from attempting to remove one himself. The 36-year-old man, Steven Spinale, has been fighting for his life since 2022, undergoing open heart surgery and being placed in a medically-induced coma. His sister has been providing updates on TikTok and created a GoFundMe to support his family. The advice includes spotting ingrown hairs, preventing and treating them, and when to seek medical help.
