During the healing process we used a combination of tea tree and lavender essential oil in Topical Vitamin E oil. Doc thought it was weird and asked us to stop using it, so we did. The edges of the wound turned white and hard plus the wound stopped healing. I said screw that and started using my blend again. The edges of the wound went back to pink and soft, and it started healing again.<br /><br />My blend was equal portions of each oil. You might not want it that strong but I was determined that Hubby wasn't going to lose his foot if I could help it. So give the tea tree oil a try.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06530748998376076224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1937170202895477126.post-73558322032844744812017-04-22T15:32:36.526-04:002017-04-22T15:32:36.526-04:00Said a prayer for your healing.Said a prayer for your healing.Gorges Smythehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08777621500611603786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1937170202895477126.post-73337011172391165102017-04-22T13:43:06.916-04:002017-04-22T13:43:06.916-04:00You are lucky to alive.

My wife was a med lad tech and I can understand what's going on. Two week treatment scheduled instead of just one, with a harsher antibiotic. Dr. wants me eating yogurt with active cultures 4X/day and to take probiotics. Guts already messed up, but the leg looks better today than it did last night.<br /><br />You probably don't want to hear how I'm putting the old motorcycle back on the road. Expect to get some serious protective gear. I know it's dangerous, but so is sitting at home watching TV, waiting to die. So far I've boots, gloves, rain gear and eye protection. Got some decent riding pants I should fit into soon. Checking out different options for a helmet and jacket.<br /><br />Maybe I should park the big bike and ride a scooter. :)Sixbearshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15572224383041421400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1937170202895477126.post-1796364676152568042017-04-22T12:56:26.682-04:002017-04-22T12:56:26.682-04:00When I had my motorcycle vs car run in...One of th...When I had my motorcycle vs car run in...One of the many injuries was that it gouged out about half of my lower leg , just above my foot. A big chunk of meat was folded over down to the Bone. <br />Meatball surgery in the Emergency Room sewed it back together . Bad thing was it got really infected ,even with IV antibiotics , and mostly died off...<br />Ended up being six months till it finely healed over.
