hello. I have had a strange sore on my hand for a week now. It started like it was a mosquito bite and itched. it then grew larger and it looked like pimples where forming around it. a few popped and now it looks like its forming boils filled with puss. it s also oozing puss. Any idea what this could be?
Hi You have developed a skin problem known as IED ( Infectious eczematoid dermatitis) . It can originate in something as simple as an insect bite and and develop secondary infection also.The surrounding area due to constant itching can become eczematous You can apply mometasone with Fusidic acid ( Momate F ) cream twice daily.In addition you can take levocetrizine 5 mg daily at bed time for a week.
