Ay when I was younger maybe 12 or so, I got cellulitis on my thigh. It was a huge rash with a center point that was like a gash with pus coming out. Nothing helped it so I was hospitalized. Whatever they gave me through the IV cleared it up in 2 days. You need to be admitted to the hospital and treated before it gets into your blood stream, cellulitis can be very serious.
