I want to give a character of mine a wound infection on his leg. Something severe enough to raise the stakes, but not lethal. Something that would be interesting to write about. The setting is very much pre-modern in terms of medicine.

I once had something that would erupt in pus whenever I had a small wound anywhere on my body (and delay healing significantly). It was kinda living inside of me, clawing it’s way out.
Bleh. I once had a huge infected area (don’t ever do skin picking people) on my leg. Definitely sucked, though not something worth writing a chapter or two about.
