Recurred Painful Blister Filled With Pus On Leg, Difficulty Moving Around. History Of Treated With Antibiotics And Fudic. Any OTC Medicines/
Last year i got a blister filled with pus on my leg and it was very painful. I used antibiotics and an ointment named fudic for it but it took too long to recover. Now i can see the similar thing appearing once again and i want to treat it as soon as possible because it wont let me move around if it got worse. Can you please recommend me with some over the counter medicine that i can use for it.

Hi,
You seem to be developing a boil or furuncle. Add potassium permanganate/ potash crystals to warm water and do warm water compresses with the same over lesion atleast twice in a day. Apply mupirocin cream two times in a day. Use antibacterial soap to bathe. Hopefully in few days the lesion should resolve.
Take care
