For some time my legs have been red from the knee down. I am pleased to say that normality is returning and the patches of redness are receeding. The thoughts of celulitus or even worse seem to be behind me. Creams and ointments from the GP were ineffective and often open sores had to be treated by Helen a Nures who specialises in Skin Disorders at Beacon Medical Centre.

In the last month or so Aloe Vera topped with Vaseline has done the trick. I’m optimistic that soon my legs will be back to normal and ready for a sun tan as this hot weather continues.
