Can I Fly While Suffering From Cellulitis Infection?
i have lymphedema from node removal etc, years ago, I get cellulitis infections occasionally, I got one today and am supposed to fly a 5 hr flight in one more day. I've started my antibiotics. Do you think it's OK for me to fly if it doesn't get worse & no fever?
