Strange colour, concerned
 
Ok, Im kinda concerned about this cut i've got.
Its new, as it were
Less than 12 hours old, so yeh I admit i have no will power but this esentially rules out contamination oer time as such.
I have beed rolling aorun in the grass al lday and taking a pair of tights on and off this morning, but its gonea funyn colour.

It's like theres the cut, then its gone bright mottled red at the edges, andits sore tot he touch, anyideas?

has it scabbed over yet and what colour is the cut itself? it sounds like it might be infected. =\

The cut its self, from what i cna make out is scabbed over, and is very dark red/black, howeer when it wasn't scabbed over ihe fresh stuf was like purple red, Could this be it?

sounds like maybe taking the tights on and off if it wasnt scabbed then you might have got something in it or with the grass. i know this isnt really very good first aid advice at all but i just pick at it a bit and try and get out any pus or whatevers in there and it usually heals up.

also i'm guessing the cuts on your leg?


Sounds sorta infected. i dont know. if all else failes, go to a doctor, pm a first aid advisor etc.

Erm yeh, an Thanks, :d tis more help than my own sadly non existant knowledge.

Now pink and not sore, possibly a good sign

Not really more like someone has dappled red on at teh edges, like when people get to hot and get flushed
