Hi,

The condition may be impetigo. Consult the Dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. It is an infection caused by bacteria. So, take a course of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs under your doctor's supervision. Apply antibiotics cream like Gentamicin. Take bath in Dettol mixed water.

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

Take care.
