I got the red tracking in my leg just before christmas a year or two back, didn't think much of it at first but ended up in hospital for four days This comment has made me curious. I had drummed into me from childhood on, that a red stripe moving out from a skin puncture was REALLY serious and not to be ignored and I'm sure you know that too. What were the circumstances that led to you ignoring the warning?. |

It should be, I agree. I don't think we make quite so much of it here, no. -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon http://www.discoverdartmoor.co.uk/ (remove weeds from address) |

classic signs are - redness, swelling, pain and hot to the touch.

... classic signs are - redness, swelling, pain and hot to the touch. And the presence of pus. Although I suspect if there is evidence of that, it is generally going to quickly find it's way out by bursting forth. Charming subject this, but I guess a familiar scenario for gardeners. I would have no idea how to identify an infection! Alan |

I would have no idea how to identify an infection! Oh yes you would! Infected wounds HURT, SWELL, GO RED & HOT and the affected part is close to USELESS. I'm sure that lot would make you seek help (you might not know it's an infection but you would know something is WRONG!) or are you REALLY STUPID? -- Helen D. Vecht: Edgware. |

Oh here we go, net-shouting .... I've a strange feeling of deja-vu I'm sure that lot would make you seek help (you might not know it's an infection but you would know something is WRONG!) or are you REALLY STUPID? Hmm. I think you'd better go and cool-off lady, your tone is unnecessarily offensive and arrogant. Stop trying to stir it. |

I think you'd better go and cool-off lady, your tone is unnecessarily offensive and arrogant. Stop trying to stir it. Most of my posts have been informative and inoffensive. I put the cardinal features of infection in upper case to highlight them, not to shout. When someone plays the fool, my patience can wear a bit thin, but the poster so playing seems to have taken this with better humour than some people... -- Helen D. Vecht: Edgware. |
