Cellulitis: Symptoms, Causes, Treatment & Prevention

Cellulitis: Symptoms, Causes, Treatment & Prevention Cellulitis is a common bacterial skin infection that affects deeper layers of the skin, such as the dermis and subcutaneous tissue, often caused by bacteria like Streptococcus and Staphylococcus, including MRSA. It typically occurs when bacteria enter the skin through cuts, scratches, insect bites, or other skin injuries. Symptoms include redness, swelling, pain, warmth, and sometimes fever or blisters in the affected area. People with weakened immune systems, diabetes, or circulatory issues are more susceptible. Diagnosis is based on physical examination, and treatment primarily involves antibiotics, pain relief, and wound care. Preventive measures include good hygiene, proper wound care, and managing underlying conditions like diabetes or eczema. #Cellulitistreatments #Cellulitiscauses #Typesofcellulitis #Picturesofcellulitis Join this channel to get access to perks:    / @learnmedicineasap   --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe for more medical and health content:    / @learnmedicineasap   Check out our other helpful playlists Obstetrics and Gynecology    • Obstetrics and Gynecology   General Surgery Lessons    • General Surgery Lessons   Internal Medicine    • Internal Medicine   Child Health and Pediatrics    • Child Health and Pediatrics   Pharmacology Lecture Videos    • Pharmacology Lecture Videos   Anaesthesiology | Anesthesiology    • Anaesthesiology | Anesthesiology   Medical Parasitology    • Medical Parasitology   Infectious Diseases    • Infectious Diseases   Pathology    • Pathology   Microbiology    • Microbiology   Anatomy    • Anatomy   Ear Nose and Throat - ENT    • Ear Nose and Throat - ENT   Oral Health | Oral Hygiene | Dental Health    • Oral Health | Oral Hygiene | Dental Health   Ophthalmology | Eye Infections | Eye Diseases    • Ophthalmology | Eye Infections | Eye Diseases   Oncology    • Oncology   Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) | Sexual Wellness & Health - Sexual Infection | STI    • Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) | Sexua...   Women's Health    • Women's Health   Men's Health    • Men's Health   Vitamins, Minerals and their Deficiencies | Vitamin Deficiencies | Mineral Deficiencies    • Vitamins, Minerals and their Deficiencies ...   Clinical Skills | Clinical Techniques    • Clinical Skills | Clinical Techniques   Pharmacology Mnemonics    • Pharmacology Mnemonics   Internal Medicine Mnemonics    • Internal Medicine Mnemonics
