infection?!?!

[mickdiesel]

so I think I def have an infection. leg was sore for 2 days. no heat. no swelling, just pain. third day, really hurts and swollen. today is the fourth day, still very painful, swolen, hot, and red blotches, very slight fever. I have 200, 500mg amoxicillin's. I took 4 today (no that's not normal, just want to spike levels quick) and will take another one every six hours.

u guys have any advice on this? if the fever gets worse and the leg gets worse def gonna go see the doc. thanks bros

fever is 99.2 by the way.

Not technically a fever yet. Take some IB profrun or asprin. Then if it doesn't go away, then go to the doc and tell them you are doing B12 injections. Otherwise be prepared to listen to their steroid rant for 10 min.

I'd watch real close what you have going on. If the symptoms keep increasing and the site not improving real soon get to your doctor. These things can escalate very, very quickly.

it will take about 3 days for the antibiotic to kick in...so see how it goes...

yeah but he already frontloaded it, so the process might be faster

what would u call "soon". 2 days? from what I think its progres has been slow. this is going off the fact that tooth infections flare up in a day or so.

Can't answer that Bro, only you can based on what's going on with you. I had a really bad infection one time and am always spooked about getting another one. I'd think that if it hasn't stabilized and/or improved in two days I'd go see your doc, or if your symptoms get worse.

Same thing happend to me when i started my current cycle. It was on the 2nd day of the cycle, and i had administered test suspension.

The next day, the area got very swollen, red, hot, and some red areas around the injection site. The symptoms continued for a good 3-4 days, and then they seemed to subside. The redness, hot feeling went away, and the area wasnt swollen.

IMO you should continue your treatment and see what happens, if the symptoms dont subside in the next couple days, i would see a trusted doc.

yeah that's why I frontloaded

yeah that's why I frontloaded

coz i heard of the doctor last week for the 1st time that u can frontload the anti-biotics at the 1st day up to 3000mg of amoxicillin then carrying on with 500 every 8 hours in case the infection was so bad. but its no recommended with out seeing a Dr

hey I realy appreiciate the advice. the reason. Im still sort of weird about the fever is the fact that the npp I was shooting
was actually giving me fevers. this is the fourth day since the npp, prop shot. I stopped the npp cause of the horrible sides I was getting. I'm gonna put it on hold for now and try it again later. bout 8 months I think.
