What Is Cellulitis?

Cellulitis is a bacterial infection of the deeper layers of the skin and soft tissue. It often appears suddenly and can rapidly worsen without treatment. While it can affect any area of the body, cellulitis is most commonly seen on the legs, arms, and lower extremities.

Common causes include:

  • Small cuts, scrapes, or insect bites

  • Cracks in dry skin

  • Athlete’s foot or fungal infections

  • Surgical wounds or medical devices

  • Compromised immune systems

Because cellulitis develops beneath the surface, it often cannot be treated with topical products alone. Professional medical care is essential.

Signs & Symptoms of Cellulitis

If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms, schedule an appointment promptly:

  • Redness that spreads or expands

  • Swelling or firm, warm skin

  • Pain or tenderness

  • Fever, chills, or fatigue

  • Skin that appears tight, glossy, or inflamed

  • Red streaking near the affected area

Early diagnosis helps prevent complications such as abscesses or bloodstream infections.

How Cellulitis Is Diagnosed

At Wallis Dermatology Associates, our dermatologists perform a detailed assessment, which may include:

  • Skin examination

  • Medical history review

  • Identification of possible entry points (scratches, cuts, eczema, insect bites)

  • Assessing for swelling, lymph node involvement, or systemic symptoms

If necessary, additional testing or imaging may be recommended.
