Hi Pankaj,
Thanks for sharing your query with us
You seem to be having a furuncle over your right leg. Treatment requires warm saline compresses of the lesion followed by application of antibacterial cream like mupirocin cream twice in a day. If its too painful then an analgesic like Brufen can be taken.
The lesion near your anal area probably seems to be haemorrhoid or piles. For the same a consultation with surgeon is required.
Hope that helps. Take care

Hi, you are having two diseases. One is impetigo contagiosa , on right leg. For that you take short course of antibiotics and anti inflammatory drugs. And second is probably fistula in ano. For that you should consult general surgeon... Ok
