|
|
Nine days ago I was cutting landscape timbers with a chopsaw.( I think the real name is a miter saw ) I was knelt down beside it and I went to repostion myself or something and I ran my knee into it. It caught the inner side of my leg and the very top of my knee. it looked like it hit the knee cap on the top inner side and took a chunk of meat out. about an inch long and a little wider than a fat pencil. It did not hurt at the time just stung bad, it didn't bleed much either. The last 3 days seems like it is swelling and it is now hurting. I got a pescription of amoxicillen 2 days after. My daughter and a few other friends said I should worry about bone infection. Can anyone tell me the signs of bone infection.
I was laid-off from my job of 15 years, 2 months ago, and with no insurance, I didn't go to the Dr. I thought it would be alright, but the bone infection thing has me worried. Everyone says it is bad.
Thanks in advance for any info on bone infection |
