Is there an average healing time for Cellulitis in the Lower Leg?

I was just hospitalized for 7 days with a cut on my leg that got severely infected and turned into cellulitis. From mid-shin to foot was bright red, maximally swollen and the pain was debilitating (could not step on it for 6 days). The swelling is almost gone but I still have a lot of pain in my ankle and the lower leg skin. I was sent home with continued antibiotics and told to take Tylenol (heh). Wondering how long this pain is supposed to last before an infection this serious heals.

No. Every situation is different.
