Serving Fort Bend County, Texas
Cellulitis — a bacterial skin infection that causes redness, swelling, warmth, and pain — can escalate quickly if it isn't treated properly. Many patients end up in the ER or get admitted to the hospital for IV antibiotics when the infection could have been managed at home with the right clinical support.
Our nurses assess the infection, administer IV or oral antibiotics per your physician's orders, draw markers on the redness to track whether it's spreading or shrinking, and monitor your response to treatment at every visit. For patients who have been discharged from the hospital after a cellulitis admission, we continue the IV antibiotic course at home so you don't have to stay inpatient for the full treatment.

Common questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Many cases of cellulitis can be safely treated at home with IV or oral antibiotics and skilled nursing monitoring. Your physician determines whether home treatment is appropriate based on the severity and location of the infection.
Our nurses mark the borders of the redness at each visit and measure whether the area is shrinking. We also monitor your temperature, pain level, and lab markers to confirm the antibiotics are working.
If the infection isn't responding, we escalate immediately — coordinating with your physician on antibiotic changes and advising emergency care if the situation becomes urgent.
