Hi.
As per your case history your aunt is probably having cellulitis.
My treatment advice is -
1. Don't squeeze the lesions as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic cream like fusiderm cream twice daily on it.
3. Take a NSAID like ibuprofen for pain and swelling.
4. It needs higher oral antibiotics like linezolid, amikacin and levofloxacin taken only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
