Hi..

Hot water..warm water will help you to improve infection. Pour dettol liq few drops in bath tub and remain in warm water for few minutes,it will denitely help you to get faster relief in infection. But,take proper antibiotics and anti inflammatory drugs for few weeks after consulting the dermatologist.
