Back to the original post... I can't corroborate a story of splinters, but i can recommend that you spend time CLEANING THE FLOOR, and the inside of your men. My budokan is very dirty. I clean the floor, but it doesn't help, people walk outside with bare feet, then come inside, without wiping them. It's really nasty.

Shortly after starting kendou, I contracted a mysterious eye illness, which was of course, improperly treated by japanese doctors, and it instead developed complications and turned into uveitis. I've had it for 10 months now, and it does get noticeably worse when the budokan floor is extremely dirty. the dirt is stirred up and gets inside my men, making my eyes worse.

if i can pass one useful piece of information on to everyone else, it would be: clean the floor. i'll never see properly again in my life, because of a bloody dirty floor and poor medical care too.

c I think this post is quite interesting, however can you answer me one question has anybody else in your dojo contracted this strange illness? if not i feel that it may be an alergy...what do ya think...because it seems a bit strange that if you are the only person to have contracted this illness...in any case...the best thing to suggest to help with this illness as you have said that it keeps getting worse because of the dirty floor...well then i suggest that you speak to your senior to try and clean up the dojo...if that does not work...i guess the only way is you clean the floor yourself by arriving early to the dojo...which in effect will set an example to the other kendokas...if that does not seem to be your cup of tea then i suggest look for another dojo....hehehehe

but i am sure it would not get to that kind of situation.
