FOX News Story


Paul Karason puts a whole new spin on "feeling blue.” For more than a decade, the 57-year-old has been living with a blue face.

Fourteen years ago, Karason developed a bad case of dermatitis, which results in swollen, reddened and itchy skin. He started self-medicating, using a treatment called colloidal silver, which is made by extracting silver from metal.

Often touted by manufacturers as a cure-all, colloidal silver usually is found in a liquid form. Looking for relief, Karason drank the concoction and rubbed it on his skin — something the U.S. Food and Drug Administration does not recommend.

His skin slowly turned blue.

All he needs to do is dip his head in some Tarn-X.

That guy is just plain freaky looking...

I've got a ex-coworker who takes the colloidal silver, I wonder if he will quit now.

Then again many things are safe if you don't over do it.....

There will be some people in Seattle (think Broadway and Denny Way) who will start taking that shit on purpose once they find out what happens.

It'll contrast nicely with pink hair.
