Suggest Topical Antibiotics For Pustules On Testicles.

I have these 2-3 small pustules on my testicles for which a dermatologist prescribed some oral antibiotic tablets but I do not like to take antibiotics. Can you please help me out with some kind of topical antibiotic which I can apply to get rid of this problem.

HI.
The best one is liquid Povidone iodine ( will be available as Betadine or any other name ) Apply this to the area 2 to 4 times daily..

It is always better to take antibiotic. If the antibiotic is causing any problems , please tell this to your Doctor and get a solution for this.
