Cellulitis

Question

Cellulitis

Asked for Female, 58 Years

I had pains in my stomach. Following day, my temperature was raised and my left ear was burning and itching. Following day, my ear was massively swollen, almost like cauliflower ear. Went to the surgery and they gave me antibiotics. But the antibiotics almost seemed the we’re having a revserse effect. GP diagnosed as cellulitis. Seen an ENT consultant and they gave me more antibiotics. Now the cellulitis has travelled all around my body and my right eye is swollen and inflamed.
