Get it written →JP is a 17-year-old male who complains of redness, tenderness and warmth of his left lower leg which has been spreading for the past 3 days. From your questioning, you discover JP has a recent spider bite in the same area but it never seemed to heal. You suspect that JP has an uncomplicated cellulitis since the infection appears to be non-purulent, localized and JP does not have signs/symptoms of systemic infection. JP has a history of hypothyroidism and obesity. He currently takes levothyroxine (Synthroid) 50 mcg po daily. He has no medication allergies. When making your treatment decision, you consider this previously healthy patient and the possible pathogens could be causing this cellulitis. What are the two most common pathogens likely to be associated with this patient’s cellulitis?
