Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.
I see similar cases amongst young people who visit my clinic. In the first meeting, I advise my patients to use Fucidin maximum during 14 days. Don't continue to use the cream,it is not required now.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Wishing you good health.
