We are deeply saddened to learn of another loss in the kink community.
Understanding risks helps us make informed decisions and prevent adverse outcomes, but there are some risks that cannot be mitigated.

That's fair! For both the key control is avoiding surfaces that may have been in contact with fecal matter. Washing hands and toys after use, not performing fellatio right after it was in someone, and using condoms and dental dams can help prevent infections. rackwiki.org/wiki/Giardia
Tight restraints or prolonged immobilization can put pressure on nerves and restrict blood flow, potentially leading to nerve damage, numbness, tingling, or loss of sensation in the bound areas. Primary areas to look out for are the wrists and ankles to produce wrist and foot drop respectively.

Rimming can cause bacterial or parasitic infections such as giardia and shigella. Giardia is an intestinal infection that causes stomach cramps, bloating, nausea and bouts of watery diarrhea. Shigella is a bacterial infection that can cause long lasting and bloody diarrhea.
A core aspect of the wiki is the incident report system, so that we learn from our mistakes to save lives. Today, we're proud to publish our first incident report.
Thank you to all the volunteers who took time to speak and work with us on this.

Too many in our community have been hurt from lack of knowledge. We must change our culture to talk about risk in a nuanced and specific way, and emphasize harm reduction over abstinence. (12/13)
C3. Unlike most of RACKWiki, these reports will not be publicly editable and will strictly adhere to our content and privacy policies. The conclusions of reports may be referenced in relevant RACKWiki articles. (11/13)
C2. RACKWiki will collect reports of kink-related accidents, follow-up when possible, and produce a de-identified and curated final report with risk analysis and potential mitigation strategies. (10/13)
C1. RACKWiki publishes incident reports. Many who have died from kink were experienced, thought they knew what they were doing, but were unaware of, forgot, or dismissed a critical safety step that led to their death. (9/13)
