Hello, Anon! Thank you for writing.

We can't speak to whether or not you have cellulitis or gout. This is for your doctor to say. I would follow whatever treatments he (or she) has recommended.

Diclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication. It works by reducing substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation. Diclofenac is used to treat mild to moderate pain, or signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis.
