My husband was in the hospital for a week last summer with cellulitis. He had IV's and after about 3 weeks it cleared up. Thank goodness he hasn't had it again, but I think he got it when we went to Florida. Maybe something bit him and then we spent about 24 hours driving home. He has poor circulation in his right leg due to having bypass surgery 12 years ago. I bought loose top diabetic socks at Wal-Mart for him to wear and that also helps. Feel better soon!!
