Ouch!!! Wound issues :(

[Eve]

I was moving some furniture around a couple of weeks ago and noticed a load of blood all over my leg.

I must have caught it somehow and it was bleeding badly. It has scabbed over pretty much so not open but the skin is still very very sore for about a couple of inches over the top of it (not anywhere else round it and it's pretty red and doesn't seem to be getting any better.

I tried to take a picture (but having flash and shadow as well as logistical issues haha).

Is there anything I can do to help it heal and stop being so sore quicker?

I had a bad bout of cellulitis on my foot in the summer and am hoping it's nothing like that again, it's very red (a lot redder than on the photo). How should I tell if it has got infected or anything like that?

Remind me never to come to yours for a roast dinner pussy haha :)

Got to the doctors this morning and he said it is infected so has put me on a course of antibiotics so it will hopefully start clearing up soon, fingers crossed!
