Recurring Cellulitis in Lower Limb
Hi Doctors,
I have had a second episode of Cellulitis in my lower limb, I am unable to figure out what can be the suspected causes since my sugar levels are good, I have no family history of diabetes and all my blood work comes out to be normal.
Each time this happened I had to visit the doctor to get the underlying pus drained.

Hi... Cellulitis doesn't have pus. You might be suffering from a different disease.
Need details for a proper diagnosis and further management.
You can consult if you like.
