When to See a Doctor
Orbital cellulitis would go away without treatment. However, the risk of developing complications can be higher. Therefore, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as you notice any symptoms of infection like fever, redness, or swelling. If you are taking antibiotics to treat cellulitis and see worsening signs, make sure to consult your doctor immediately. Complications would happen when the body does not respond to treatments. When the infection does not improve after a few days after starting treatments, you need to check it again with your healthcare provider for a more effective plan. [10]
