my husbands right knee began to swell  and a week after his entire leg was swollen, the doctors diagnosed him with cellulitis and put him on two rounds of antibiotics. Now he seems to have folliculitis and swollen lymph nodes in his neck, could this all be related and what should he do?
Hi, dear. I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.  Cellulitis and folliculitis may be due to same etiology or may be due some other cause. You lymph node enlargement is mostly due to your infection. If you don't improve with antibiotics then go for culture and sensitivity testing.  Then start antibiotics accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
