I spent the weekend in the hospital.

During my follow-up appointment for my leg sprain on Friday, the doctor noticed the compression sleeve put on my knee had cut into my leg. I went to the emergency room immediately after and was admitted.

The doctor originally said I would need surgery to close the wound, but later determined surgery wasn't needed. On my last day in the hospital (Monday,) I was given supplies and instructions for changing the bandages on my leg and treating the wound. I also have an appointment in early-January at a wound care clinic.
