The abrasion is washed or clean with soap that may create further chemical irritation and internal infection as it travels thru the blood stream of the leg. This could cause a full blown leg infection and more serious issues. The Moral: keep the toes protected and feet covered while you are out n about.

In 25 years of quad- I have never had an infection like this, but you can bet I will jump quickly at the first signs should I ever get one. As unpleasant as this is to think about, I appreciate your posting it and the comments of others on how important it is to act at the earliest signs of infections. It almost seems like common sense, and I suppose it is, but like you I don't think I would have been too concerned had I seen those early symptoms. > > >Best of luck and I hope your hospital stay is as good as a hospital stay can >get, including hot, young nurses on every shift, weekends too, who flirt just >enough to make you want to buzz them every three minutes for a drink of >water.

The redness has receded a bit but swelling is still outrageous. See a surgeon today to see if he thinks any of the hot mess needs debrieding (sp?) I know I'm preaching to the choir, but this never-ending crap gets so very old. >> >> >>
