I have blood poisoning(red line) growing from foot from puncture wound in foot, what to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lymphadenitis: That wound has gotten infected and the infection is going up throughout the lymph vessel and glands following what looks like a blood vessel pattern. You need to see your doctor for proper antibiotics and be sure to be up-to-date with your tetanus shot.
