What Do Lumps On Cellulitis Caused After An Injury Indicate?
Hi, about a year ago I was in an accident and developed cellulitis in my calf. It took about seven months for it to go away. Well yesterday I slipped on icy stairs and fell on the cement pad. This morning I woke up to some bruising on my leg and lumps where the cellulitis used to be. Should I be worried that it is back?
