A severely red, swollen, and inflamed leg, which strongly suggests a serious skin and soft tissue infection, most likely cellulitis.
Cellulitis is a bacterial skin infection commonly caused by Streptococcus or Staphylococcus bacteria.
It typically presents with redness, warmth, swelling, pain or tenderness, and sometimes fever or chills. Other possible conditions that could resemble this include deep vein thrombosis, venous stasis dermatitis, erysipelas, or an allergic reaction, but cellulitis is the most likely based on the appearance.
This condition requires urgent medical attention because if left untreated, it can spread rapidly and lead to serious complications such as abscess formation, sepsis, or lymphangitis.
Treatment usually involves oral or intravenous antibiotics, and elevating the leg may help reduce swelling. Immediate consultation with a healthcare provider is necessary.
