Cellulitis disease, which used to affect a few people during the rainy season, is now widespread in the erstwhile Karimnagar district, Telangana.
- Cellulitis Disease is a serious deep infection of the skin caused by bacteria.
- It most commonly affects the lower part of your body, including your legs, feet, and toes.
