You should start a thread on this. I think you have something serious going on here. Most likely cellulitis and a round of Keflex will be a good idea. With all due respect to your chiro, a medical doctor is needed in times of disease like this. Chiros are awesome and are great for holistic solutions to prevention of disease, but when something like this happens, it's time to break out the powerful shit.
Researched Cellulitis- and you might be right. I think someone mentioned this to me awhile back and I looked up pics but didn't see any that looked similar nor did the area ever get hot or turn red. I will put in a call to the doc tomorrow and see if he will just call a script in for Keflex
WebMD states that "It is very important to get treatment right away for cellulitis. If it is not treated, the bacteria can spread quickly through the body and cause sepsis, an extreme response by the body’s defense system".
