I've had this twice before - and normally antibiotics will have it sorted (or at least on the wane) within 48 hours. This time it's in a different league altogether - I'm now on day 10 and my leg looks like its been transplanted from an elephant below the knee. I currently attend Outpatients on a daily basis for blood withdrawal and testing followed by an antibiotic drip. I keep being told that the infection is going down, but I can't say as I have noticed any improvement. A further complication is that I'm allergic to Penicillin, but the docs appear quite relaxed about that aspect - I'm more concerned that the doc said it might take up to six weeks for the swelling to go down!
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced Cellulitis like this?
