What's the cause ?: Cellulitis is visible inflammation (itis) of the skin and soft tissues (red, hot, swollen, tender) . It is caused by many things including sunburn (radiation), trauma (sprained ankle) or poor vein circulation (stasis dermatitis). It need not be caused by bacteria.If you have repeated episodes of this, get to a wound care or vascular specialist, the diagnoses you have is wrong. Chocolate not a cz !
