It is a skin disease caused by foreign bodies entering and infecting the skin. The infection mostly enters through cuts or bruises that are already present in the body. So these areas should be kept clean. Cellulitis can occur in the mouth, eye socket or in the legs. The skin can be painful, warm and red when affected with cellulitis.
