How is cellulitis treated?
Cellulitis is treated with antibiotics. If you catch it early before it has started to spread, a 5- to 7-day course of antibiotics taken orally should do the trick.
What if oral antibiotics don’t work?
If oral antibiotics don’t help clear your cellulitis, your doctor may choose intravenous (IV) antibiotics that are given in the hospital. You may undergo some testing to identify the type of bacteria responsible for your infection.
What else can I do to treat cellulitis?
In addition to taking your antibiotics as directed, keep the affected limb elevated to reduce any swelling. You can take over-the-counter pain medications and also place a cool, damp cloth over the area.
