Understanding soft tissue infection
A soft tissue infection involves the skin and the tissue just beneath it, for example an infected cut, boil, abscess or cellulitis, and it can spread if left untreated.
Common triggers
Bacteria entering through a cut, bite, scrape, insect bite or blister. Sweat, shaving, sea water, minor skin damage and diabetes raise the risk.
Care and treatment for soft tissue infection
By video the doctor assesses the area, decides how serious it is, prescribes antibiotics if appropriate and arranges drainage or a face-to-face review for an abscess or fast spread. Depending on your case, the doctor may suggest antibiotics, wound care and, for an abscess, drainage arranged in person.
- Keep the limb raised and mark the edge of any redness with a pen
- Do not squeeze or burst a boil or abscess
- Cover it with a clean dressing
