Not my left foot part 2

Well for 8 weeks I have been struggling on my right foot in various degrees of pain, ranging from mild to absolute agony, where I have been unable to put any weight on it at all. The GP decided weeks ago that it was another bout of fasciitis which I had in 1995 and has been treating me with anti-inflammatories. I however have not been convinced.

Last night I was proved correct. The side of my foot literally burst open and an abcess was revealed.

I am waiting for the surgery to open now so I can get it looked at properly. Maybe it will start to heal now and I will be able to walk again.

Oh Jas, I am so sorry about this, what a horrible thing to happen. Have you stepped on anything or had an injury there?

Please let us know what is going on, worried here. Take Care

Terry, Thanks for your concern. I'm just back from ER. My GP operated and removed 3 pieces of wood then sent me for xray and a further consult to see what it was. To cut a very long story short I have abx and have to go back in a week unless it has healed completely.
It's stinging a bit now!
