roger101 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I have an infection in my leg,Cellulitis. It is highly lightly that if I go shopping I will show a temperature when tested. What happens then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichCor Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 ...not sure why you're asking. IF you are denied entry to a location doing temperature testing, then do your shopping somewhere else (or somewhere they aren't doing temperature checks). Unless you're running an extremely HIGH temp most test checkers are just telling people to wait a few minutes and test again (ie: they're not calling in police or military backup at grocery stores, you're free to leave). If your condition is chronic and you show elevated temps most of the time and it's a barrier to shopping then you could try taking paracetamol an hour prior to lower your overall body temp. But you should understand the cautions of taking such drugs on an ongoing basis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good advice. I had it once, very stubborn infection and not a good idea to leave it untreated. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/cellulitis/symptoms-causes/syc-20370762 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
