2017-07-03 07:39:24
Somehow got to my right foot some time during mid February and its been spreading and itching. And after returning from a 5 day short trip to tropics in May there was a little swelling on the ankle but it was back to normal after that. But now a week or so ago its been swelling again and this time from the ankle to the toe joints
