Yesterday I was determined to get some exercise even if it means using a walker because of my poor balance. I started out in the cool of the morning determined to take a long walk. I Made It :clap:
It ended up I did pay a price. For some unusual reason a lot of the cement on the sidewalks were crawling with little ants. As it turned out they crawled on more than just the cement. Later that day I found my leg full of ant attracts.
Talk about hives and itch. Unfortunately last night in bed I kept scratching the and now have huge dark red welts which itch like heck and all of the surrounding area too.
It's hard to keep my fingers off but that just causes pain.
Does any one know what to do with the swelling and itch. I've tried ice several times but it hasn't helped.
So much for long walks. However determined to exercise, today I bought one of those foot pedal cycling machines.
I can even sit inside and watch TV while I exercise if I want. It tells you how long, how far, how fast etc. you are going. I did 25min. today.
No more ants but lots of excercie without my walker!
:bigmouth::banana::bigmouth::bjump:
Back to my question does anyone know how to get rid of the welts,THE ITCH and the pain around them? I have already tried Benzedrine gel and cream, ice and tea tree oil. No luck so far.
You are all great people and I know that you care. Thanks so much for being here. lonnie
