Large blister on previously swollen ankle

Hello

 You need a visit to a farmacia to get the correct advice/medication  - if you cant walk, then a taxi it is.

Cheers

Thanks El 'in Spain' I'll see how my ankle is tomorrow. Thanks for your advice re the airport. It all seems expensive.

You can get a bus from La Zenia / Playa Flamenca to Torrevieja bus station and another bus from Torrevieja direct to the airport, total cost €8.50 

Thanks again El

Hi 

If you go to a pharmacy - they often have crutches in stock. I bought a pair a few years back for €17. Well worth it.

Cheers

Thanks Steve. I'm ok though and don't need a stick/crutches tai walk locally but it's over a mile walk to the pharmacy. I was hoping someone could give me some basic advice. Thanks again.

Please, please please at least see a pharmacist “face to face”

It really is dangerous to ask for medical advice on this (or any other) forum

You could possible have cellulitis, which requires treating.

Hi Paddy

Thanks for your advice. I've been trying to phone a taxi all day to go to the pharmacy. It's impossible to get through!! I usually come out of season. I'm returning to UK on Wednesday. I'm quite skinny though 8.5 St and the 'blister' is sort of yellow and not itchy. I have itchy mosquito bites. I don't seem to fit into what's outlined on the Web.

I will go to the pharmacy ASAP though. Thanks again for your advice.

Hi Julie

If you are close to a bar, go there and buy a coffee and ask them to get a taxi for you. In my experience, it's the easiest way.

Cheers
