Suggest Cure For Bumps On The Back

I woke up a few days ago with small pen-like black bumps on the right side of my lower back by my kidney. I scratched a few of them off but there are a lot in a square-like area, the ones I was able to scratch off have turned to red sores. It also looks like there is a bit of bruising around a few of the dots.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have bumps on the back which could be due to blockage of sebaceous glands as back has rich number of sebaceous glands. Need not to worry. You should rinse the area with mild antiseptic solution like Savlon twice a day. Apply topical antibiotic cream such as neosprin 2% on it. take a course of antibiotic Tablet. Take a course of Amoxacillin with Clavulenic acid twice a day for 5 days. Visit dermatologist once and get it examined and start treatment after proper prescription.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
