Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello,
Thanks for the query.

You might have developed furuncle.

These are deep bacterial infections.

Treatment is with antibiotics but the choice of antibiotics should be based on culture and sensitivity tests.

Please dont apply hydrocortisone.

Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.
