Can Mupirocin Be Used For Abrasions On The Ankle?
Question: I am looking for location of prescribing doctor, XXXXXXX Queen, MD, somewhere close to Rock Hill, SC area. He prescribed mupirocin 2% ointment and I'm trying to figure out if instruction are incorrect. Horrible scraping and raw spots on top of ankle and toes but instructions says "apply to anal" area. If I could figure out what type of doctor this is it may clarify. I was prescribed big red capsule antibiotic (don't remember name) and was supposed to get an ointment for ankles but am having trouble tracking down medication, doctor, anything. Someone called Friday and said they would resend however I KNOW FedEx or UPS does not take over 4 days. Also have prescription by same person for clotrimmazole betamethasone crm 15 to be applied to rectal as does instruction on mupirocin 2%. neither of which say to apply to top of ankles and toes which were severely craped and damaged when I feel and are not heeling after a good 30 days. Can you help me locate what office he is in?

Thanx for your concise answer. The instructions did say "anal" which applied for a problem I had (severe bed sores right where hip bones rest on any surface) but nothing about using it elsewhere. I have since gotten that clear Top of Ankles and toes are still in bad shape. I alternate between covering wounds with large band aids and "hospital" socks when I have to go out and leaving open to air when I'm strictly at home. Again, thanx for your help.
