Hello,

Seems like it is a skin infection..I suggest you to take an oral antibiotic e.g either Amoxicillin or Cephalexin for a few days. In addition I suggest you to apply a topical antibiotic e.g either Neosporin ointment or Mupirocin ointment.

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

Regards,
