                        I have just been diagnosed with cellulitis.  It is localized to my buttocks and is very painful.  I have had it for 3 weeks now.  I have been doing a lot of research online and discovered alot of people get it on their legs and stuff.  Mine is just a localized lesion and has an open sore.  The Dr. has me on Cipro, Darvocet (for the pain), and warm soaks (sitz baths)..I go back to see  him in 2 weeks.    I have chosen to take several days off of work because the pain in unbearable and I am afraid the infection will get worse.    Has anyone experienced this type of cellulitis.  Any comments or advise.
