Learn how to take a history of present illness for cellulitis in Spanish, including key questions about symptoms and systemic signs like fever. 

In future lessons, we’ll explore risk factors, the exam, and the treatment plan for cellulitis.

This clinical dialogue on Celluitis was recorded with my Spanish teacher, Henry Mejía, at the Cultural Spanish School in San Pedro La Laguna, Guatemala. ¡Chécalo! I recommend this school for a fantastic immersion experience!
