Hi, I Was Diagnosed With Cellulitis On The On The

Hi, I was diagnosed with cellulitis on the on the 21st Sep 2015, it is primarily in the left shin , I was put on Litares (Moxifloxacin) by my doc for initially 5 days, I was also asked to take mybucod for pain and given an ointment to apply on the affected area, after 5 days I went back for check as my leg, ankle, feet were swelling.. my doctor asked me to repeat a second doze of the antibiotics and also asked me to stop mybucod and put me on Arcoxia once a day, the infection on my shin seems to be subsided, just one spot around the calf is very tender, feet is still swollen though, any advice for me, by when should this totally be gone? wwhat about the tender spot on calf? why is the feet still swollen, seem to be improving then just swollen up again, confused.....I am on day 8 of antibiotics, can see major improvement...
