1. Tea Tree Oil
Due to its strong antibacterial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties, tea tree oil is highly beneficial for treating cellulitis.

Moisten a cotton swab with water and put one or two drops of tea tree essential oil on it. Dab it on the site of the infection. Leave it on for a few hours before washing it off.
Alternatively, you can mix a couple of drops of tea tree oil in one teaspoon of aloe vera gel or raw honey. Apply it on your skin and leave it on for a few hours before rinsing it off.
Use either of these remedies once or twice daily until you are satisfied with the results.
2. Coconut Oil
Coconut oil contains medium-chain fatty acids, particularly lauric acid which helps fight bacteria. Coconut oil is also soothing for the skin and has healing properties.

  • Apply coconut oil on the affected area.
  • Leave it on for a few hours and then wash it off.
  • Reapply several times a day until the problem is cured.
