I Had An Infection Below My Left Eye On The

I had an infection below my left eye on the upper cheekbone. I had like a pimple, a red dot, itched and developed into an infection. Eye Doctor gave me Z pak and went away, not sure what it was. Now, 2 months later it is back. Red dot in the exact same place and starting to get puffy.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It is possible that you may have a cyst in that area.

If a cyst is not removed, it is possible that recollection and reinfection can occur.

You should see your doctor for reassessment. An additional course of antibiotics are needed.

I hope this helps
