The mainstay of therapy for cellulitis is antimicrobial therapy.  Beta-lactam antibiotics are the usual drugs of choice,  since most of the cases of cellulitis are caused either by Staphylococcus aureus or Streptococcus.  Supportive therapy includes bed rest, compression stockings, and elevation of the affected limb.  If a small abscess is surrounding the affected tissue, it may be treated with incision and drainage.
