Hi All, I've been on antibiotics for 5 weeks now for cellulitis on my shin. Any ideas on how I can speed up the healing process - or what to do next? Any ideas thoughts/ideas would be really appreciated!

Thank you!

Just make sure you keep the skin well moisturised so that it doesn't dry out and drink plenty fluids.
