How To Cure Allergic Reaction To Cream?
Hi, I had stitches put in my ankle a week ago from a cut. I have been washing them and putting the same antibiotic ointment on them since then. I believe that I have had an allergic reaction to the cream I have been using. The skin became red and blistered yesterday where I applied it. What should I do?

Hi,
I have gone through your query.
If you are confirm that it is due to allergic reaction to ointment, stop it. As you haven't mentioned name of antibiotic, you have to consult your treating doctor for change on ointment and clinical examination.
Do consider a positive feedback as a credit to my work. Let me know if you have any further questions.
