Does Pinkish Color Of Foot Indicate Cellulitis Despite Ongoing Medication?
Hi, I had a severe case of celluitis and have been on antibiotics for 24 days and my foot still has a pink hue to it. It has improved a lot but the color difference between my two feet has me concerned. I still have 6 days left of meds, if my foot is still pinkish do I still have the infection?

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to cellulitis.
I suggest using a second cycle of antibiotics to treat the infection.
Meanwhile,I suggest using antibiotic cream for loca application.
Hope my answer was helpful.
