Hello, I am a 47 year old female, height 5 7. I was admitted to the hospital in early January 2016 due to cellulitis. I had horrible pain my feet. When I woke up, it felt as if I had stepped in a bucket of glass shards. I went to a local Patient First ambulatory clinic where once they looked at it suggested I go to the emergency room. I was admitted to the hospital for 3 days and sent home on antibiotics. Since then, I have flare ups from time to time, but nothing close to the pain I had before. I lost my job inbetween, so I had no health insurance. I just endeavored to ingest very high doses of vitamin C, about 10,000 mg per day. This has seemed to help greatly. Last week, it seems like it had a relapse and pain started getting worse. Today is better since taking the Vitamin C and putting ice on my feet for relief. I have noticed the skin on my lower left leg looks all bumpy and surface of skin very hard-like. Have been putting coconut oil on my legs every night for past 3 days.....noticed a bit better but not all they way yet. Will appearance of my skin be restored also? Thank you for any help you can give. God bless you.
