Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to cellulitis. I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the fever and inflammation. I also suggest using a cycle of antibiotic such as Augmentin 625 mg. If the symptoms continue, I suggest to see your physician for further evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
