Introduction
Our skin protects us from dust, germs, heat, and injuries. But sometimes, bacteria, fungi or even viruses can enter through small cuts, insect bites, or cracks and cause skin & soft tissue infections (SSTIs).
These infections can start small but become serious if not treated on time. If you are searching for safe and expert Skin & Soft Tissue Infection Treatment in Coimbatore, you can confidently meet Dr. A Murali, an experienced Infectious Disease specialist.
What are skin & soft tissue infections?
Skin & soft tissue infections (called SSTIs) are infections that affect:
-
The skin (outer layer)
-
The fat layer under the skin
-
Sometimes even muscles and bones
They are mostly caused by bacteria that enter through wounds, cracked skin, or after surgery.
Common types of skin & soft tissue infections
🟥 Cellulitis:
Red, swollen, warm and painful skin. Usually happens on the legs.
🟠 Abscess / Boils:
Swelling filled with pus. Can be painful and may burst.
🟢 Fungal infections:
Like ringworm, which causes itchy, red circular patches.
🩸 Necrotising fasciitis:
A very serious, fast-spreading infection that destroys skin and muscles. Needs emergency treatment.

In people with diabetes, small cuts on feet can get infected easily and may not heal.
