A member asked:
Is it normal for a cellulite spot on the front of the thigh to hurt or get sore from time to time? i have heard that some cellulite can hurt.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No its not normal: Cellulite does not cause pain. it is not a disease, rather it is a cosmetic structural condition. If you have pain its better you have your doctor check it
