Suggest Remedy For Skin Infection

Hi Doc, My daughter (16yrs) in a catfight with her twin sis got scratched with nails. she used savlon to clean it and i gave her Soframycin Cream to be applied. we continued this treatment at home for two days. red rashes had started the very first day around that area then by third day the pain was unbearable and there was inflamation so we took her to a Pediatrician closeby... He said its Savlon burn as savlon was not diluted before application... He gave her B-Bact ointment for application, Clavam 625 mg twice a day, a painkiller thrice a day and a multivitamin. Today is the second day. Yesterday afternoon there was pus ozing out of that area also its itchy. Are we on the right track

Hello,

Thnx to contact us. I understand your concern.

If I am your treating doctor I advice you that your treatment is right, you are on right track. Its second day of your treatment and so the improvement is not seem. But maintain the local hygiene by proper cleaning and dressing with betadine, B-Bact ointment etc. Prevent further injury to infected parts.
