Hi, I am Dr Mittal. I have read your message. I think I can help you.
First, I suggest that you need to start taking systemic antibiotics. The local antibiotics have a limited action.
Second addition of steroidal therapy will be needed.
Third check sugars and CBC.
Fourth I would ideally suggest admission to the hospital if I was treating a case similar to yours.
I have tried to make it as simple as possible. I hope that the information contained in this message will be able to help you find the best solution for your problem. Best of luck. Dr Mittal
