A bacterial infection usually causes cellulitis. The bacteria that cause it often live harmlessly on the skin but can cause an infection in certain circumstances, especially if they get into a break in your skin from bruises, cuts, abrasions, or animal bites. You are more likely to get cellulitis if you are recovering from surgery, have other health problems, or take medications that weaken your immune system or cause problems with blood circulation.
Cellulitis is an infection of the deeper layers of the skin and underlying tissue. It can be severe if not treated immediately. The infection develops suddenly and can quickly spread throughout the body. Severe infections can spread deep into the body and can be life-threatening. Complications can include extensive tissue damage and tissue death (gangrene). The infection can also spread to the blood, bones, lymphatic, heart, or nervous systems.
