[QUOTE="crazymama30, post: 235491, member: 3184"] Cellulitis can be stubborn, and if you had a bad infection it can take a couple rounds of antibiotics, especially if your immune system is compromised. I have seen that. My grandfather had cellulitis in his elbow (immune system compromised due to prednisone use) and was hospitalized on IV antibiotics for about 4-5 days, then oral for another 10-14. It took another month for the swelling to go down, and is just now(4-5 months later) almost normal. Now he is 84, on prednisone due to his end stage Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Take care of yourself, and ask about more antibiotics and ask if there is anything else you can do. Not sure if there is, but what does it hurt to ask. [/QUOTE]
