Hi.
As per your case history of enterobacter infection, my treatment advice is -
1. Maintain good hygiene and bath twice daily.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic cream like fusiderm cream twice daily on affected skin.
3. Take a NSAID like ibuprofen for pain and levocetrizine for itching.
4. Antibiotics like levofloxacin and doxycyline can be used only after consulting a dermatologist.
Thanks.
