Another Possible Infection

Did you get to the bottom of all this?

Fyi. I just pinned my lats again. Smooth as silk.

My butt is off limits for a bit due to too much scar tissue. I have a hard time relaxing my quads… they’re in the rotation… just aggravating.
 
It ended up clearing up after a few days. I’ve been pinning more frequently with less volume and started doing delts over the past week and that seems to be working so far. I think the reaction I was having may have been to the higher volumes and not rotating spots enough. Hopefully this will prevent any more issues
 
Educational purposes only…no clue about the member or source.

If it was legitimately cellulitis then it’s got nothing to do with the carrier oil and likely nothing to do with the gear at all. Now that doesn’t mean you don’t need to be skeptical about all sources including myself because you should be but it also helps to have the knowledge.

See link from the Mayo Clinic and read it if you care to know.


Way to many people assume it’s the gear or whatever and it very well could be but if it’s diagnosed as cellulitis it ain’t the gear.
Cellulitis is typically caused by strep and staph bacteria which can be found on the skin, under fingernails etc. Any break in the skin (ie pinning) can lead to a cellulitis infection.

Be safe and aware guys.

ps,I know this is a response to a months old thread but figured this would be useful.
 
Spot on. I had this exact thing once.

From exactly the same scenario they list

Diabetic

Wasn’t moisturizing my skin properly

Had to go into a full fledge nasty azz shooting gallery to rescue an infant (we’ve adopted her now).

Got staph on two places on my lower legs. I was wearing shorts and had very dry cracked skin at the time.

My doc diagnosed it exactly as the article.
 
Ps.

The little girl was ate up with staph infection.

The handful of her essential belongings we snagged had to be bleached in our driveway.
 
I think it was the sponsors gear more than anything. There’s no way I would have gotten cellulitis twice in a row. I was either allergic to something in it or it was just bad gear. They are no longer welcome here and scammed people there at the end. I switched to a different sponsor and have had no such issues
