Guest guest Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 make sure to rest your leg. The first time I had cellutitus I was out of work for 6 months and it had me in the hospital for 7 days. Ask your doctor about water pills it will help move the infected fluid out. Also massage your leg where the infection is to move the fluid up through the bladder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Hi Donna, I understand all about cellulitis. I must have had it before my surgery and did not know it and the compression hoses that they had on my legs really aggravated it and ended up with a full blown case and I had to stay in a while longer and had to take some pretty high powered anti-biotics.
