HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
These are infected.
You may need to be treated by your doctor. If the areas are abscesses then the definitive treatment involves incision and drainage along with antibiotics.
If they are not thought to be abscesses then treatment may involve only cleaning the area with an antiseptic along with the antibiotics.
Antibiotic, at least , are required for healing to occur.
I hope this helps
