Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello,

You seem to have a skin infection. I suggest you to take an oral antibiotic e.g either amoxicillin or cephalexin for a week. In addition I suggest you to apply a topical antibiotic e.g either neosporin ointment or Mupirocin 2% ointment, twice daily.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Kakkar S., Dermatologist
