### input:
I have a painful red lump on my left shin and its been there for about a week now. Ive just arranged a doctors appointment for Monday as it feels that its getting worse. IIts sore to the touch and feels quite warm and swollen. Its been feeling more tender in the last day or so and, Ive been feeling quite tired recently. Ive read the symptoms of Cellulitis and it seems plasuible to me. Im 35, relatively healthy and I dont smoke or use drugs. I drink socially, but not heavily/frequently.My question is whether I should keep to the doctors appointment in a few days or whether I should seek more urgent medical help. It aches to walk but isnt excrutiatingly painful. Id say that the lump has got bigger in the last few days but doesnt  seem to have spread elsewhere and hasnt grown rapidly.Im happy to wait until Monday but would also like to know what to do in the meantime? I presume I should keep weight off of it, take over the counter painkillers and rub in an antiseptic lotion, but not sure and would appreciate the advice. Thanks

Hi this is Chat Doctor. Thanks for the opportunity for helping you. As per your description this fits your assumption of cellulitis though I would like to get few more informations1) did you get your sugars checked recently. If not kindly get your sugars checked, fasting blood sugars as well as postprandial blood sugar levels. If you have recently developed diabetes then your immunity will be lowed, and you might get cellulitis due to streptococcal infection or klebsiella or pseudocodes infection.2) kindly get a total count done which will guide you regarding the extent of infection and help in considering your decision to wait till your appointment. Kindly enlighten me about any history of injury over the affected site. As u have told that the lump is tender, warm and non-spreading it fits the diagnosis of evolving abscess secondary to cellulitis.in that case incision and
