i`M AFRAID i MAY HAVE PHLEBITIS BECAUSE i HAVE A PLACE ON MY LEG THAT LOOKS LIKE AN OPEN SORE AND IT`S INFLAMED..mY MOTHER HAD IT AND MY mOTHER`S SISTER HAS ULCER NOW AND MY MOTHER HAD PHLEBITIS WHEN MY OLDEST BROTHER WAS BORN. i THOUGHT i HAD A PATCH OF POISON iVY OR OAK, BECAUSE i HAD IT IN OTHER PLACES, SO I PUT HYDROCORTAZONE ON IT AND IT HAS TURNED BLACK, mY SON WAS CONCERNED, HE WAS A CORPSMAN IN THE NAVY SEALS, SO I WENT TO THE DR. YESTERDAY AND THE DR. THERE DID NOT SEEM CONCERNED THEY GAVE ME A TETANUS SHOT, AND PUT SOME ANTIBACTERIAL OINTMENT ON IT AND SENT ME HOME..i`M TO GO BACK IN A WEEK IF IT`S NOT BETTER..SHOULD I BE CONCERNED?
