Question: Hi. I am a 43 year old female that has had one child and passed a few kidney stones other than that i am in perfect health except for a possibly low thyroid. i have worked most of my life in health supplements and have taken many vitamins, omegas, liver cleansers and thermogenics. i dont exercise as often as i should but i stay pretty active. The only doctor i have seen for the past 10 years regularly is my OB/GYN I am allergic to general antibiotics with severe allergy to sulfa drugs. i have sensitive skin and have recently done some research on the fact that i get boils for the past 3 years. i get them on my neck and around my nose i get tiny infections. i understand that this is staph and had surgery to remove a carbunckle on the back of my neckline 2 years ago. QUESTION: I am only prone to this actively during the months of march and early april for the past 3 years in the same areas. I have used antibiotic gel, acne gel with salycilic acid and recently discovered hydrocortisone cream. the acne medicine seams to toughen the skin but not heal well, the antibiotic gel only works well overnight with a bandaid. i use sanitizer wipes and witch XXXXXXX to cleanse the skin when i can.... so what am i missing? what can i do to alleviate this situation better during these 2 months? besides wash my hands and take acidophilius, what do YOU suggest for the cream and or treatment and prevention.

thank you so much. i realized after my question that it could be partially due to returning to a part time food service job (past 3 years) for extra income. it is very stressful(lowering immunity) and very hard to keep hands clean in constant contact with consumer waste. thanks again... i will take better precautions and use the diluted bleach and antibacterial soap until i can get the antibiotic ointment you referred to..... i have one Last QUESTION: upon blistering and breakout on the neck -how effective is the use of acne ointment and what do you think about the use of hydrocortisone cream....
