An adult or child with cellulitis often notices prominent symptoms in the affected area. These symptoms include:

  • Pain
  • Tenderness
  • Redness

Cellulitis can also cause fevers and chills, which may be present before the local symptoms arise.

If you notice any of these symptoms, you should see your doctor immediately.
