I had a huge boil/abscess come up on my leg last Saturday, I'm prone to then under my arms and on my inner thigh. Anyway this was big and sore, it burst and left a hole. I didn't feel unwell and have been cleaning the wound and changing dressings twice a day.
I have severe health anxiety and am convinced this is an infected wound. If it about the size of a 5p piece in diameter, and looks like something from a zombie film, I can see into my leg! I am going to get it checked on Monday, I probably need antibiotics, but feel totally fine and don't feel like it's getting worse, hubby said it will take weeks to heal its normal. I just want to know if this looks infected to anyone? The redness around it has been there since the boil and is reducing by the day. I'm such a baby it's just so vile to look at x it burst on Thursday morning.
