A member asked:
What do you suggest if my cellulitis symptoms lasted a week and disappeared completely a month ago, am i cured?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cellulitis gone: If you had cellulitis and the symptoms have disappeared after one month, you are technically free of cellulitis but you must avoid what caused it. Do not scratch yourself without washing your hands and nails first. Use a clean soft tooth brush over the area that had the cellulitis if it gets itchy. Use daily skin moisturizers Containing Vitamin E and Zinc to keep the skin healthy.
