How would one confirm for having Cellulitis?
Patient: Hi,My father inlaw broke his forearm 2 months ago and had his cast removed after 6 weeks.He is now experiencing pain and swelling in the inner part of his elbow.He is unable to bend at the elbow,and he has redness.Is it possible that he could have a cellulitis? Doctor: Hi,  Consult a general surgeon and evaluated. An ultrasound scan is required. A short course of antibiotics might be required preferably Amoxclav.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Regards, Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
