I have what looks like a pimple on my right shoulder and I have had this for several weeks--it looks white. I m afraid it is cancer because it hurts to touch it. my question to you is I have a prescription of clindamycin hcl 300mg--- also I have a prescription of sulfamethoxazole -trime 800-160 is either one of these medicines worth taking for this sore on my right shoulder? or should I be seen
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You can take any one of this medication. Both are antibiotics. Anyone of these can be taken as both are broad-spectrum antibiotics only. It is not cancerous at all and is infective. So only you have been treated with those antibiotics. Take those medication full courses and appropriate dosage as prescribed.
Hope this information helps you sort out your problems. If you feel its helpful kindly give me user thanks vote. Happy health! Regards, Dr. Archana
