u/chill2308

34F, 5’6, 145lbs, non smoker.

She had flu-like symptoms yesterday and noticed her right breast was red and tender. She’s was diagnosed with mastitis from her PCP and was prescribed cephalexin. The flu-like symptoms are gone today but her breast looks noticeably worse (more red, bigger area). She hasn’t quite been on the antibiotics for 24 hours but from my research it states that it still shouldn’t look like an infection has spread at the 24 hour mark.

I guess my question is, should she keep monitoring it for the next 24 hours and continue using the cephalexin or should she go to the ER/urgent care?

Thank you!

He just picked up these charges last night.

For reference: he’s already on felony probation for attempted burglary in another county. He also has a court date for violation of that probation in said county.

He has 2 DUI’s, violations of protection orders, and possession of controlled substance in the past.

EDIT: I believe his suspended sentence for the felony probation is 4-6 yrs in DOC
