Cellulitis is usually treated with antibiotics. Many infections can be treated with antibiotic tablets at home. You'll usually be given a five-day course of treatment, and your symptoms should start to improve after a few days.

Complications of cellulitis can be very serious. These can include extensive tissue damage and tissue death (gangrene). The infection can also spread to the blood, bones, lymph system, heart, or nervous system. These infections can lead to amputation, shock, or even death.
