      Do you have any Phisohex? Wash it umteen times a day and if it’s just staph it’ll help. But not if it’s MRSA. DO NOT lance it even if it does come to a head. How big is the area? and how far from the first lump?

        I don’t have a ruler to measure it but its bigger then a 50 cent piece or (for the windstone fan) about the size of the felt on a curlie. Its right below the old red lump I had last week which seems to be going away.

          With my ear infection, there wasn’t open sore or anything. They just swabed my ear and grew the culture.
          Weird. Good luck anyway. And after 7 days, you are eligible for either disability or worker’s comp.
          Don’t be afraid to scream for your rights!

            I have sick leave at work (surprising after last years events) so I’m still getting paid. I just didn’t want to have to use it incase I need it for if I, Danny, or Alyssa gets sick. They can’t just swab the outside of my leg because the infection is under the skin. If it was open then they could but since its not all they can do is tell me its cellulitis and treat it as if it were MRSA. If it does open up on its own I’m going to go back and have them swab it but I’m not going to try and open it on my own. It is throbbing like a b though 😕

              Its looking better but the antibiotics they have me on are giving me headaches and making me wicked dizzy. Its like being drunk but without the alcohol.

              Well it’s just no fun without the alcohol, is it?

              Glad that it’s doing a bit better! 🙂
