Dermatologist 's  Response
hello,

welcome to healthcare magic.

i will be glad to be of assistance.

you have most likely got a bacterial infection over an allergic reaction.

hydrocortisone and neosporin cream, are mild, you may need oral medications to treat it. a course of oral steroids and oral antibiotics may be required.

i will recommend that you viit your doctor and let him have a look.

regards
