General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi, it appears to be the folliculitis, with the resistant bacteria. May also be secondary to the hepatitis as it is already existing. I advise you to consult a gastroenterologist for diagnosis and treatment. If it is excluded you can get the culture and sensitivity of the discharge from the eruptions and can have treatment accordingly. Thank you.
