    **Causes**:
    Bacteria (usually Streptococcus and Staphylococcus)
    Cuts, abrasions, or other breaks in the skin
    **Treatment**:
    1. **Antibiotics**: Prescribed by a doctor, usually taken for 5-14 days.
    2. **Rest**: Elevate the affected area to reduce swelling.
    3. **Pain Relief**: Over-the-counter pain medications like ibuprofen or acetaminophen.
    4. **Wound Care**: Keep the area clean and covered.
    5. **Hydration**: Drink plenty of fluids to help your body fight the infection.
    **Prevention**:
    Clean wounds promptly and apply antibiotic ointment.
    Keep skin moisturized to prevent cracks.
    Monitor any cuts or scrapes for signs of infection.
    If you suspect cellulitis, seek medical attention promptly to avoid complications.
