Put the garments on when you are no longer in pain. The main thing is to rest and elevate while the infection is acute - give your body a chance to recover.

It doesn’t hurt there’s not a pain but it is tender I’ve been on IV antibiotics for two days they just released me from the hospital with antibiotics to take home with me or early so you still think it’s OK for me to wrap my leg because I have no pain

If it’s tender, leave them off. Rest, rest, rest and elevate.

Cellulitis is serious stuff. Let your body deal with it.
