Soft tissue infection explained
Infected cuts, boils, abscesses and cellulitis are all soft tissue infections of the skin and underlying tissue, which may spread without treatment.
What can cause soft tissue infection
Bacteria entering through a cut, bite, scrape, insect bite or blister. Sweat, shaving, sea water, minor skin damage and diabetes raise the risk.
How soft tissue infection is treated
The doctor looks at the area on camera, judges how serious it is, prescribes an antibiotic where it is appropriate and arranges drainage or in-person review if there is an abscess or it is spreading. Typical choices are antibiotics, wound care and, for an abscess, drainage arranged in person.
