Étiquette : cellulitis

Cellulitis is a bacterial skin infection that occurs when there is an opening in the skin where bacteria can enter, like cuts, scratches, or animal bites. An individual with this infection experiences pain, warmth, swelling, and redness in the affected area. In some more severe cases, it can cause chills, lightheadedness, and fever.

Preventing cellulitis would involve keeping the skin clean to avoid harmful bacteria and moisturizing it to prevent drying and itching. Overall, practicing good hygiene is the key. It is also important to take care to avoid injuries that can create a tear in the skin.

However, if you develop cellulitis, seek treatment right away to avoid complications. Its conventional treatment typically involves antibiotics and painkillers.  However, these often have disadvantages. According to CDC, antibiotics have side effects like nausea, rashes, dizziness, and diarrhea.

Alternatively, studies show that essential oils are effective in treating cellulitis. These oils from plants possess properties that can fight microbes and inflammation. Some of the most effective essential oils for fighting bacteria include tea tree oil, lavender oil, and cypress essential oil, as proven by multiple studies. Moreover, essential oils have natural antioxidant properties that prevent skin aging.
