What Causes Blisters On The Coccyx With Brown Colored Pus?
Woke up to two pimple looking marks right below my coccyx. Ive been having severe pain in that region and went to the doctor and they said there was nothing wrong. I forgot to mention these blister (or whatever it may be). Early it started oozing this brown pus that smelled faintly like gasoline. Im very concern... Should I return to the hospital?

Hi.
As per your case history you are having furuncles.
My treatment advice is -
1. Don't squeeze the lesions as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic cream like fusiderm cream twice daily on it.
3. Take a NSAID like ibuprofen for pain.
4. Other treatment options are oral antibiotics like levofloxacin, cefadroxil and azithromycin taken only after consulting a dermatologist.
Thanks.
