During my last dive at Tioman, in one of the dive, i encounter strong current. At the same time, i guess my wing expanded after 10m ascend from 30.5m deep dive.
I felt a strong pull to the back and up. I was stupid and trying to fight. So, i grabbed on some corals like object and broke some of it. I was like hugging the rock with some corals. Sorry for the destruction caused.
With some help of a diver, i managed to deflate my bc and goes down the the sea floor and managed myself.
Continue diving till thenend of dive and ascended to the boat and realized i have some cut on my left knee and rashes on my right knee...
About an hour or 2 later, thr rashes dispersed a little and it didn't bother me much. So, i went for another dive and returned the dive centre and packed up and head home. No treatment was performed on the spot.
I went home and look online to identify the corals which i have damaged. And it looks like it's a type of fire corals which isn't corals afterall and learnt that they arenmore related to anemone and jellies.
Everything seems fine for a few days. However, 2 days ago. I felt itch on my right knee where the rashes was. So, i scratched a little. And 2day, the rashes came back as the picture attached below.
Rashes appeared only on right knee and not thr knee with cut. While on the boat and even today.
