The end of the 4th week!

The whole leg goes a red-blue sort of colour when I first get up and move around in the mornings. (The picture was taken sometime after I got up, and so doesn't show the massive difference between the two). From thigh downwards the leg is much darker than the healthy leg. It's still painful when I lower it down, but not so bad as previously.

I don't think the infection is completely gone yet.

I have a slight tingling sensation in my right hand, near the finger tips. Must talk to physio/doctor about it, but is suspect it is caused by the crutches. (After-note; probably pressure on the nerve, it happens whenever I use the crutches.)

Physio appointment at 3pm.

Exercises going reasonably well. Must focus on adding the extra moves, and on imposing a more disciplined routine.
