Suggest Treatment For Blisters Filled With Yellow Pus In Pubic Area After Shaving

Hi, last week i shaved my pubic area and then got a red pimple that looked like an ingrown hair to me after few days it started spreading around it, now i have about 6-7 small blister close to each other filled with yellow stuff, also red ulser looking scratches in the same area. It used to itch in the beggining, now it hurts (burns). I got a fucidin cream from a doctor that thought it was a staph infection but doc wasnt sure, she sent samples to a lab, results will come in few weeks. So that fucidin cream doesnt help , ive been using it for about 5 days.

Hi! thanks for writing to us and sharing the details of a blisters filled with yellow pus in pubic area after shaving!

Yes, you started it the right way but unfortunately it failed to treat your infection.

Possibilities are:

1. mixed infection

2. infected tiny cyst as the cyst cavity harbors organisms!

Therefore, if I were your family physician, I would advise you to take povidone-iodine/metronidazole ointments or lotions after a good wash with chlorhexidine antiseptic / hot water solution; ointments containing genamycin are also effective.

Hope you got the answer and please see your doctor for a prescription.

wishing you good health...

Anyways,
I find this answer helpful
