2 Year Old, Pimples, Boils Allover Body. Taking Antibiotics, Applying Bioderm Cream. Recommendations?

Hi Doctor,

My 2 year old son has pimples and boils all over his head and face. We have gone to the clininc and he was treated with an antibiotic for five days (we did not complete the the dose though). I have also applied the bioderm cream on the infected areas. The infections are going away in part of the head but growing on the parts of the head.

I need advise on how I can assist my son.

Thanks

Already your child is on antibiotics.
