    I think it would be a good idea to see a doctor as soon as possible. That looks as if it could be an infection and it needs catching quickly. Are you diabetic? If so, that makes it more urgent but I'm not sure I would wait for Monday anyway.

    Hi 

    I would suggest like your previous reply that you need to see someone a.s.a.p.

    It is difficult to tell from a picture but I would say you have got some infection there which would probably need antibiotics. It looks like cellulitus which means inflammation of the cells.

    Get it sorted sooner rather than later to avoid further problems.

    Best of luck

    Hi Jessie, I agree with the others, I think you need to go to your casualty department straight away... you obviously have an infection, if it is cellulite it will spread rapidly, or if it is a sepsis infection that too is dangerous to your health...

    If you go to casualty I know they will be very helpful.... DO NOT leave it another day and night.... keep us updated... Sincere regards dee xx

    Ps... many years ago I was a nurse.....
