    Hi
    I went into hospital last June with cellulitis,I was in for two weeks when I came home I had an ulcer which I still have.
    My other leg over the last few months has started hurting and it`s getting worse it`s lumpy on the back of my leg under my knee and sometimes gets really hot.
    I also had a dvt in my right leg about 12 years ago,hope I've explained enough
    Thank you
    Sharon.

    Ten years ago, I was doing the same thing -- hospital for two weeks with cellulitis. The infection ended up in an abscess on my shin, so surgery was done to remove it and clean out the area. Follow up with your doctor on this ulcer. It may be an abscess like I had.
