Just wanted to share something that I believe is working to stop me getting cellulitis again.

4 or five years ago I had several incidents of Cellulitis about a 10 months to a year apart . Two on my abdomen after a cat scratch and an insect bite. One on a foot - insect bite again and one on my leg - insect bite. Since then I have applied tea tree oil or lotions to my abdomen and groin areas and insect repellent to legs and feet as a body lotion almost daily.and in any creases such as breasts and navel.

Result - NO CELLULITIS FOR 2 AND A HALF YEARS NOW.

Worth a try I think.

Hope this helps some one - I nearly died of toxic shock one of those times I had it and was on special care unit with kidneys shutting down. I use Plantation Tea tree lotion you can buy a a local supermarket where I am.

Thanks, Jane -- and congrats on the relief! Wondering if you ever tried homeopathic Pyrogenium, which was recommended to me. I'm on month 11 of pain in leg from bug bite; lately leg feeling numb and, weirdly, like blood is on fire or something.

Thank you. Be well!

Thanks Jane. I will try anything. I never want this again. Still have it on knee foot and ankle, 7 weeks on but off antibiotics at last. I have microcytic anaemia now but hopefully will get sorted with that. Good luck to continue cellulitis free

No Catherine I not heard of it. Thank you though I will talk to a friend who is into Homeopathy and will ask her about that.
