Soft Tissue Infection Explained
A soft tissue infection involves the skin and the tissue just beneath it, for example an infected cut, boil, abscess or cellulitis, and it can spread if left untreated.
Typical Symptoms
- Fever or chills
- Pus or a boil
- Red, warm and swollen area of skin
Causes and Risk Factors
Bacteria get in through a cut, bite, scrape, insect bite or blister. Sweat, shaving, sea water, small skin injuries and diabetes raise the risk.
How Soft Tissue Infection Is Treated
By video the doctor examines the area, decides how serious it is, prescribes antibiotics if suitable and arranges drainage or a face-to-face review for an abscess or fast spread. Typical choices are antibiotics, wound care and, for an abscess, drainage arranged in person.
- Keep the limb raised and mark the edge of any redness with a pen
- Cover it with a clean dressing
- Clean the area with soap and water
- Do not squeeze or burst a boil or abscess
