Lymphorrah

Has anyone else ever suffered from this. It is where the lymph fluid seeps through the skin.

I have already been to doctors and am on a course of antibiotics.
I first noticed it when the bottom of my trousers were damp

Just wondering how others dealt with this

Has the doctor not explained anything about it, did he not ask you a lot of questions?

Have you been ill recently? Had any operations, any lymph nodes removed? Changed any medication? When did you notice it? Was your leg painful in the recent past?

If the anti biotics give you no joy I would ask to see a specialist.

The antibiotics sorted it. My leg was badly infected but all OK now

Due to a long ago injury, my leg has been painful and my foot swells occassionally, and has done for the past 16 years, so I didnt think much of it.

It was when I found the bottom of my trousers were damp that I noticed the leakage. It wasnt blood so had to be something else.

Looked online and found it was lymph fluid leaking, so made appointment with doctor.

Everything has settled now, but will be keeping a eye on it an will be back to doctor if it flares up again.

Thanks for your input harry
