infected again??

Well... ARGH!

As of last night, the same large patch of skin on my hip is pink again - not growing from a small circle to a large circle like last time, but pretty much all of the same skin slowly turning from healthy flesh to unhealthy - and I'm slightly limping due to soreness.

It didn't creep up on me. More of a, "BAM! I'm back!"

Fark. I really really don't need this right now.

Make a hot pack, and call your doctor RIGHT NOW.

I don't have "a doctor," my doctor left for residency somewhere else and they don't have anyone to assign me to until I go to a new patient appointment with a new doctor and those are backed up 'til July or something.

I simply called the Urgent Care clinic back and they told me to come in. So that's where I'm headed now.

I have no clue what is going on. :P Neither do I know what word you're trying to say to me there, so I'll just assume it's something nice and thank you. ;)

good luck. I was about to post "Doctor! Now!". I'm glad I didn't have to.

Have fun!

Cellulitis. Scary shit if left unchecked, but happily easily treated if caught early.

Cellulitis. Bug bite, scratched it, introduced bacteria, infection. :P
