Hello
Welcome to healthcare magic forum.
Thank you for your query.
I understand your concern regarding your skin problem.
You have bacterial infection.
You need to take oral antibiotic medicine and some analgesic.
Halox is steroid one and must stop right now.
You can use neosporin cream but it is very light.
Avoid popping or pressing the lesion your own.
You can consult doctor and get it drain.
Keep take rest for 5 days and it will be okay.
I hope I answered your question.
Let me know if you have any further query.
Regards
