Ways To Treat Cellulitis

Pain Relief Medication

Cellulitis can be an extremely painful condition due in part to the excess fluid that builds up in the affected area. Your physician may recommend you take pain medication if the pain is severe. Depending on your health history, you may be advised to take a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory pain reliever, as this type of medication can also help reduce a bit of the inflammation that accompanies cellulitis. If you cannot take nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories, you may be advised to take acetaminophen as your pain relief medication instead.
