I need some advice from the med/PT types. Its not a cycling injury, but it bugs me when I ride. About a week ago I was bitten by a spider on my elbow. I had a very bad allergic reaction followed by an infection. I got the immediate swelling down with ice and benadryl, and the infection seems to be resolving with antibiotics. BUT, a week later, there is still enough swelling that it annoys me when I ride. Any ideas on how to get the swelling to go down completely, or do I just need to give it more time? All the redness is gone, but I am getting ready to stop the antibiotic (I took it for a whole week, I am supposed to take it a couple more days, but it makes me yeasty and upsets my stomach so I would really like to stop now).
