A member asked:

I am a 54 year old woman who had cellulitis in my lower leg 1 year ago. all healed but i still get a tingling/sensations in the area, is this normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Cellulitis: As you healed from cellulitis you formed scar tissue. It is very common for scar to feel a tingling sensation especially as the weather changes. Best of luck. If you see any redness or swelling see your doctor.
