Infected Spots On Arm, Red Rashes, Growing In Size, Yellow Discharge. Cure?
hi, there are infected insect bites on my arm about four of them in the same area. they have large red rashes around them which are growing wider, they are painful and gradually the pain is increasing. They are quite hard around the bitten are which has formed a hard purple brown crust. Also surrounding the bites is abyss like and yellow with a puss like discharge . The bites also have deep holes in them, need help identifying the bite and infection? thanks.
After reading your post, I would like to suggest that you should take an antihistamine like Cetrizine 10 mg once daily along with painkiller like Ibuprofen twice daily after meals. If pus is developing in the area, you should take an antibiotic like Ciprofloxacin 500 mg twice daily.
I would suggest that you should get yourself clinically examined and investigated.
I hope this is helpful to you. Thanks.
