Cellulitis

Diffuse suppurative inflammation of subcutaneous tissue, subfascia, intermuscular space or deep connective tissue caused mainly by staphylococci or streptococcus. Inflammation can spread around, and if treated in a timely and effective manner, the prognosis is good. Those with sepsis have a severe prognosis. It usually occurs in the extremities or other parts, and occurs in the fingers, called gangrene, and should be treated with sufficient antibiotics in time. Those who occur in the neck and front chest can cause edema of the throat and compress the trachea, and should be rescued in time.
