Drowsiness and Fatigue
Certain cellulitis symptoms, such as drowsiness and fatigue, could indicate that the infection is spreading. Cellulitis that has spread may cause severe fatigue and drowsiness. The individual infected may become abnormally sleepy during the day, and falling asleep at inappropriate times is not unusual.
Cellulitis can also cause fatigue. Individuals with cellulitis may lack energy and experience total exhaustion. People experiencing excessive tiredness should immediately consult a doctor because many infections or other conditions can cause fatigue.4‘Cellulitis.’ Penn Medicine, www.pennmedicine.org/for-patients-and-visitors/patient-information/conditions-treated-a-to-z/cellulitis
