Hi,

If there is frank pus coming from the wound, even if it is a fungal infection (which is common after a course of antibiotics), there is likely secondary bacterial infection too. Anyhow, to see the effect of given medicines, we have to wait for around 72 hours. If not getting down by then, or fever / pain / swelling develops, kindly get back to your doctor for possible need of wound debridement and antibiotics. Meanwhile, you can apply mupirocin ointment 2-3 times a day after cleaning the wound with warm saline.

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

Regards,
Dr. Muhammed Aslam TK, Pediatrician
