Interesting case
41 yo anabolic steroid user, had been shooting up into his vastus lateralis for year, p/w 1 month swelling of vastus lateralis, intermittant subjective fevers, headaches and anxiety, had been taking a week of Keflex without MD supervision for same.
PE: Afebrile/VSS, NAD, nontoxic but anxious, well-hydrated, leg exam showed approx 15 cm of swelling and hard induration over vastus, normal skin temp/color, no lymphadenopathy, rest of PE normal.
I'll tell you what happened after I hear some responses...
