ABSTRACT

Cellulitis is a bacterial infection involving the inner layers of the skin. Because in most cases of cellulitis, cultures or tests are not performed to isolate the infectious agent, so the diagnosis is mainly made through clinical history and physical examination, so the empirical treatment is the most used to treat this soft tissue sepsis.
