Hi,

You still need antibiotics for few more days as blistering and new lesion is going in favour of current infection and ongoing process of disease. So I would advise you to take CEFTRIAXONE SULBACTAM 1 g IV in order to heal the lesion and prevent scarring. Daily dressing and cleaning is also necessary for wound healing.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
