i'm not a doctor but to me, trying to cure a dude by taking 40% of his skin off in a dirty medieval dungeon seems somewhat optimistic

wait so the way to cure the incurable disease is to literally just remove the infected tissue? And nobody but one other guy has ever tried to do this? If I was infected with this poo poo on my arm the first thing I'd try would be to carve it out

Ya but if you touch it, you get infected. And presumably most regular people without plot armor don't survive having their skin torn off in chunks all that often.

Victarion Greyjoy was the only cool one and he had a priest set his hand on fire to be that much more rad. He had the axe and heavy armor on a ship thing too :black101:

In the book it usually starts spreading from an extremity (usually fingers or toes) and people will cut off the infected body part in hopes that it won't spread. Sometimes that works, sometimes it spreads anyway and you're cutting off more and more.

Jorah would be hosed though iirc by the time it gets to your torso there's no stopping it.

No I mean just carve the infected tissue out. That's what Sam says he needs to do. Not "I will remove the infected tissue then give you this obscure potion" or whatever. Just remove the infection with a knife. You don't even need to chop off any fingers. I thought it altered your insides as well but turns out it's essentially a fantasy breakout and all you need is hardcore exfoliation

Nah he says he needs to cut it off then apply the medicine. I agree the show is bad and gets worse every season but drat try to pay some attention if you gonna be all tv iv about it

Also this show likes to waste opportunities to showcase characters. We don't see Sam figure out how to help Jorah. Have him read the failed experiments of a dude and figure out a way to improve on them via something he learned in the Night's Watch or something. Bam now you have tension since he has to do this unproven treatment and we don't know how well it'll work. Don't just go "Oh I found a method that has worked before twice and all I need to do is to cover myself up so that I catch it"

By the way how did the guy who successfully treated the advanced version of a disease then went and loving died of the same disease?

Bur jorah was gonna get booted out of the tower a day later. So the cure Sam tries will be instantaneous because gently caress trying to figure out how time flows in the series. One day for Jorah is a week by boat for the sand snakes or an hour for cersei and Jaime or a month for Jon.

No the cum goes into soup which is then used as a cure for gay scale. Important step.

Sam clearly had a cart with weird goop in a bowl and obviously he's gonna apply that to the skin after he cuts away the scales. I get that Sam didn't explicitely say "oy Jorah, I'm gonna put a medicine on you when I'm done" but like, open your eyes when you watch a show and visually scan the screen.

He did mention the ointment I think, but I just assumed that was more to prevent other infections on the raw skin/flesh.

In any case, I thought it was pretty lame how the fat guy had to look it up in some obscure text and we find out that it's a forbidden cure and it ends up just being...hack the poo poo off. Wouldn't that be the very first thing anyone would think of? Yeah you might get infected but only if you're an idiot and cut your gloves or something.
