Overview
Lymphangitis most often is an acute complication following an extension from the skin infection with the potential of a systemic spread. It has to be promptly treated with appropriate antibiotics along with analgesics, anti-inflammatory medications, warm and moist compresses. Certain conditions like nodular lymphagitis that is complicated by abscess and lymphedema with significant lymphatic obstruction may require surgical intervention.
