[edit] Obesity

Someone needs to add some information on cellulitis because of obesity, and put it under the "causes" section. Esn 10:13, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Photographs

I've added three photographs I took when I got ill (awwrrr). Don't know if I did it the most appropriate way though (new to editing wiki pages). I see some parts of the text got messy after I added the new pics. Maybe someone can help. RafaelLopez 07:58, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re-phrase Intro

Some of the text was copied pretty much verbatim from the Mayo Clinic article cited in the references section (intro to this article from intro on the Mayo Clinic site, down to the punctuation). Should it be paraphrased more?

It may be worth adding waxing as a potential cause: http://www.journals.uchicago.edu/CID/journal/issues/v45n3/50306/50306.web.pdf —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.49.195.196 (talk) 19:30, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Choice of antibiotics

Beta-lactams and non-beta lactams work just as well, but non-beta lactams are discontinued more often: doi:10.1016/j.amjmed.2008.01.028 JFW | T@lk 08:47, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

We also need to include the Arch Intern Med 2007 paper on risk of recurrence based on location, presence of underlying venous eczema, and history of cancer. JFW | T@lk 08:47, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
