Manifestations of infection may be local (eg, cellulitis, abscess) or systemic (most often fever). Manifestations may develop in multiple organ systems. Severe, generalized infections may have life-threatening manifestations (eg, sepsis and septic shock). Most manifestations resolve with successful treatment of the underlying infection.
