OK thankyou! would your answer change (and i should have been more specific in the original question) if i said the edema came from inflammation of a fungal infection(entry via a scratch)?
The fungal infection seems to be under control now and the edema which should have also reduced and it did in the beginning, has suddenly increased and gotten worse again. I generally do put Himilayan Salt (a pinch) in all my glasses of water everyday. Do you still suggest I cut this out for a while ? thanks much
