See the Doctor ASAP. Cellulitis is nothing to mess around with. It is in fact a very serious condition, you should keep the offending leg raised higher than the heart i.e: lying in bed with the head on a small pillow and the leg resting on four pillows stacked high! Rest, raised leg and get that medication corrected. You're not better after a ten day antibiotic? You might need IV antibiotics at this point. Best of luck to you! P.S. if you have a fever or chills or both go to the ER NOW.
