Our son was sober for 5 years. He contracted cellulitis back in February. His leg swelled to 5+ times its normal size so the docs in the hospital had him on a cocktail of meds, including pain killers. They knew his history but had to put him on the pain meds. Well, yesterday, he was arrested. He had meth and heroin. He had lost a lot of weight with the cellulitis after his 1 month hospital stay. He comes over on Fridays when my husband always fries fish. He seemed normal but I asked him if he was on drugs because of his weight loss and he told me no and that he'd take a drug test. I should have tested him but trusted he was being truthful.
Our hearts are shattered. He called earlier wanting us to bail him out but we told him no. I told him he was the one who made the decision to start taking drugs again and that he has to face the consequences of his poor choices. He threatened to hang himself. I told him that wouldn't solve anything but if he made that choice we were not responsible and we sure as hell would not feel guilty. He hung up. He tried to call again but now, I've turned off my phone. He'll have a hearing next week and hopefully the judge will decide that he can go to rehab before his trial and whatever time he is given.
Anyway, I know firsthand from previous asks that your prayers are powerful. Asking for our son and for our family. Thanks so much!
Here is some research I went ahead and did. It's the mechanism of Action of cellulitis, it's damage, risks and ways to treat it.
Mechanism of damage
1. Bacterial Invasion:
2. Immune Response:
3. Tissue Damage:
4. Formation of Abscesses:
5. Systemic Effects:
Treatment of Cellulitis
1. Direct Methods to Treat Cellulitis:
1.1. Antibiotic Therapy
Reasoning: Antibiotics target and eliminate the bacterial pathogens responsible for cellulitis, reducing infection and preventing complications such as abscess formation and sepsis.
1.2. Wound Care
Reasoning: Proper wound care helps prevent additional bacterial entry and reduces the risk of spreading the infection.
1.3. Supportive Measures
Reasoning: These measures help alleviate symptoms such as pain and swelling, supporting the body’s overall recovery.
2. Phytochemicals to Treat Symptoms and Prevent Sepsis:
2.1. Garlic (Allicin)
Reasoning: Nano-allicin offers enhanced stability and bioavailability, potentially providing more effective antimicrobial and immune-supportive benefits.
2.2. Turmeric (Curcumin)
Reasoning: Nano-curcumin’s enhanced absorption and bioavailability help maximize its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, supporting better management of cellulitis symptoms.
2.3. Ginger (Gingerol)
Reasoning: Nano-gingerol’s improved absorption and stability can enhance its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects, providing better support for managing cellulitis.

Lastly, use the nano phytochemicals both topically on the infected skin as well as orally. Doing both is important. Real honey may also help. I hope this makes it's way to you and helps him.
Bannedin, we asked the doctors and they said his pain was incredible. I think as with all illnesses, people have different experiences. Do I wish they pain meds had never started, absolutely. I have never seen anyone in as much pain as our son was in - his leg was horrific. He came thisclose to losing not only his leg but his life. The docs had to put him in a coma because the infection had spread throughout his body. They were afraid that his brain would swell more. Then, he had a reaction to the antibiotic and developed Stevens-Johnson Syndrome and his skin began peeling from his body. The docs had to begin treating those areas the same way 3rd degree burns are treated. It was horrible.
Medical staff will never use this but intravenous vitamin C (typically 700mg/kg of body weight) will cure cellulitis, sepsis and most other infections in a couple of days. See "Curing the Incurable: Vitamin C Infectious Diseases and Toxins" - by Thomas E Levy.
Why are you claiming that I am simply “copying information from the net” actually read what was written fully. Maybe your cellulitis wouldn’t have been as bad if you followed it. But now that you are here, instead of disparaging my research and my help, you could share what relieved your issues if you found any. If you think a thing I wrote is nonsense then address that specifically.
Copy, what I wrote into any search engine you want, you won’t find it. Instead look at my history and you will see, when it comes to medical questions I go out and research to help others.
now, for the sake of argument what specifically is false? The common bacteria associated? The common medications used? The palliative care? The phytochemicals? Nano phytochemicals having higher bioavailability? What.
Thank you for this information, Not_Admin!
