Hi, Welcome to HealthcareMagic,
Infection over face mostly occurs over face and called Impetigo. Its crusts are golden yellow. Impetigo is caused by two bacteria - streptococcus pyogenes and staphylococcus aureus. Recommended treatment often depends on which bacteria are causing your impetigo.
The drugs you mentioned is also used for impetigo but exact antibiotics are given after culture and sensitivity testing.
There is a feature to upload the image by yourself on the right side of this query page. You may utilize that. Alternatively, you can mail it to YYYY@YYYY with subject line as "ATTN: Dr. Shahid Hassan". I will review the photograph and get back to you.
Hope this will help you.
Thanks
