Question Author
Thanks all - she had a long soak in the bath last night and tonight she has gone to bed in her pj top and pants to try and get some air to it (no idea what I am talking about, seemed like a good idea though). Will put a dressing on it for school as its too cold for a skirt and socks. Will google mepore, thanks. Have told the teacher that her leg is really sore (right on her knee) and she is allowed to sit on a char and not the carpet at circle time. Apparently she was really brave, didn't even cry but needed some water as she nearly keeled over. She is a real little trooper (bless her). Thanks all (I am rubbish at medicines and really rubbish at gore of any kind (weak stomach) but obviously want to make sure I don't do the wrong thing).
