Hi,

I got stung by a stingray about a week ago. It was on my left foot, middle toe. I put it in hot water and the pain went away almost instantly. For about a week, there was nothing wrong with it. I had no pain and no complaints. Then suddenly it started to swell up and turned into red (both the toe and the foot). I went to see a doctor and he gave Keflex (antibiotic) and Fluocinonide (a cream for the itching). I started the medicine today. The condition of my foot and toe seems to be the same. The toe is very stiff and immobile. This could be due to swelling. There are many types of species and many types of antibiotics that goes with these species, but the doctor seemed to be very confident in his chose. I was wondering if there is anybody else out there with the same problem. I'd like to know how soon I should expect results from the medicine I'm taking. Thank you.
