[cod]

that look infected and pussy

have only just noticed it
ithas a hard top and mIL is worried thatt heres a red line ont he top of his foot form the toe up his foot adn htat shwos an infection
is she right>

She could be.

Could it be a splinter or thorn or something stuck in there?

Have you got a minor injuries unit you could go to?
Can he walk on it?
Does he have a temp?

I had a lump under my arm not so long back that became infected, consequently I developed a red patch (not line though). But the main reason i knew I had an infection was due to how I felt, temp, shivers etc. How is he in himself, if he is unwell then get him to the docs for some antibiotics as my infection made me unwell very quickly, hth

Also check swollen glands for sign of infection, have heard the line thing before, not sure how much truth in it though

hmm no no tmep all welll in himslef
it is quite horriblet ho

If it looks nasty he will probably develop a temp at some stage (if it is an infection), I had my lump a few days but when i started to feel unwell I went down hill quite quickly!!

ok off to doc
have been searchign
wonder if its bursitus

haven't heard of that but whatever it is hope they sort it, i should imagine its probably a bit uncomfortable on his toe.

yes
ta mkm
will report in when i know

good luck cod .. hope you don't have to wait too long

How's the toe Cod?

oh ta yes
its just a blister/thorn thing thans infected
he has antibitcs
no idea hwo hwe has a blister tbh

ooh! A thorn I was right!
Can I come and dig it out with a needle,I love stuff like that.I am the Queen of Splinter Removal.

Glad to hear he's got antibiotics though.

Shame there is no fainting away emoticon to react to sugarfree's suggestion, eeek
Glad he is OK and has antibs cod. Red line did sound a bit ominous IMO.

yes well think now mIL ( hypochondriac supremo 0 worried me

glad you got it sorted
