Last year in July I took a trip to Aruba and did some diving. Unfortunatly I got a nasty sting/ cut from some fire coral as I was decending. I had quite a bad reaction to it at the time but just carried on taking anti histamine tablets untill I arrived back home to England as I thought it would heal in due time. However it did not get any better so I took a trip to my GP who gave me some steroid cream which also did not work fully... he said that it would go away eventually. However now 10 months down the line I'm still in the same situation... it is on my right thigh and is quite lumpy partially scared and exreamly itchy especially after physical activity or after being in the shower or any hot place. I have been to see another doctor who has perscribed yet more steroid cream which I doubt will work... I'm looking for some advice hear as I dont realy know what to do as doctors in the uk dont seem to have a clue. I've read on one forum to try vinager but I dont know if its too late for this as it is a reoccuring problem. Would these symptoms suggest that something may be still attatched in my skin and if so what shoukd I do?? I welcome any advice HELP!
