Has anyone else on here had it?

The reason why I was absent on here for a little while was because of a bad case of
Cellulitis in my lower left leg due to complications of eczema. I ended up spending 3 days
in our local hospital in Pulaski on IV antibiotics and then was on oral antibiotics for an
additional 2 weeks. The redness has still not completely disappeared and some dead skin
has been sloughing off.

Yes I had it a number of years ago. I was unable to get out of bed for a week. My right leg was so hot, that I had to take cold showers, and I didn't feel anything. My left leg was cold though.

My leg still is red and blistering, and occasionally swells up. I had to wear a compression stocking last year. It seems to be better recently.
