I think the lifeguard is basically correct, from my diving experience they are called polyps. Another cause of these irritating stings is, if there is a storm out at sea for instance, the jellyfish break up and their stingers float to shore but are unnoticeable. In either case, try not to scratch the affected area as this spreads the sting and leads to the rash and apply some vinegar with a tissue. If you don't have any vinegar, warm Coke or urine does the job. If you choose the urine option, a dip back in the sea would probably do the job!

Did you know that urine is a natural antiseptic?

That means next time your friend cuts themselves, just piss on them :lol:

BBChris, you naughty lady!

Your message will cause mayhem and civil unrest in Lamma's bars!

Guys taking advantage of your advice, teasing each other "Oh, I see you just cut yourself! Pssssssssh!"
If any victim (pissee) complains, the pisshead will just tell him "But BBChris told me to do it!"

Expect a number of your friends turning up urine-soaked at your doorstep, blaming you for inciting disorderly conduct!
