Treating Cellulitis

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

I have a friend who is in her sixties whose doctor has diagnosed her as

having cellulitis on her legs. When I googled cellulits, I found this

info:

Risk factors for cellulitis include:

Insect bites and stings,

animal bite, or human bite

Injury or trauma with a break in the skin (skin wounds)

History of

peripheral vascular disease

Diabetes-

related or ischemic ulcers

Recent cardiovascular, pulmonary (lung), dental or other procedures

Use of immunosuppressive or corticosteroid medications

Of course, he gave her some heavy duty antibiotic, but she leans toward

alternative treatment. What would you suggest to treat this problem? I

don't know that she would consider a radical change in diet at this

time. :-)

Thanks for any help you can give,

TerriLynne
