Pediatrician, Pulmonology 's  Response
Hi...by what you quote I feel that your kid might be having Pyoderma or skin and soft tissue infection in the region. The drug Clindamycin is a right choice for this. That is the reason why it is working well. But....Skin conditions are best diagnosed only after seeing directly. I suggest you to upload photographs of the same on this website, so that I can guide you scientifically.
