Hi,
It seems to be furunculosis. It is a bacterial infection of the skin. You need to take a course of oral and topical antibiotics. Oral antibiotics are prescription drugs and you need to see the doctor in person to get them.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, Dermatologist
