Cellulitis is a bacterial affection that causes an inflammation of the skin. More often than not it affects the legs but it can also affect the arms, scalp and face. Some of the symptoms of the condition are:
- Pain and tenderness
- Edema (swelling caused by fluid in the tissues)
- Abnormal redness of the skin
- Skin that is warm to the touch
- Fever
- Chills
If you think you have the condition it is vital to seek medical attention as if untreated it can lead to complications and can become life threatening. Usually the condition can be cleared up with a course of antibiotics.
There are a number of alternative therapies that can help to prevent cellulitis or can aid the healing process alongside conventional treatments. Alternative therapies should not be used on their own to treat cellulitis. Some of the treatments you could consider are nutritional therapy, herbal or homeopathic remedies, acupuncture and massage.
