Skin Infection: Nope. Not in any way would Azithromycin be used to treat any common cellulitis.

Not best choice: Cephalexin 500 every 6 hours or Clindamycin 300-450mg every 6-8 hours are better choices if you can buy over the counter in your country. Best to see primary care provider for evaluation, though.
