You are more likely to have these problems if you are an older adult, have a medical condition such as diabetes or peripheral arterial disease, or have a weak immune system. Your chances of the cellulitis coming back may be higher too.
How can you prevent cellulitis?
If you are at risk for cellulitis, you can take steps to help prevent it.
Take good care of your skin. Keep it clean, and use lotion to prevent drying and cracking.
Check your feet and legs often. This is especially important if you have diabetes.
Treat any skin infection, such as athlete's foot, right away.
Ask your doctor if you need to take antibiotics on a regular basis to prevent cellulitis.
If your doctor prescribes medicine, take it just the way your doctor says to.
