What Causes Painful, Itching Bumps On Right Side Of Belly?

A few days ago on my side and the top right side of my belly I was experiencing some mild pain but no signs of anything. A day or two later a very small bump appeared. A couple of days later a big red puffy bump appear in both places. There is occasional pain and itching in both areas. Yesterday which was the first day the big bumps popped up I felt really weak and exhausted. Do u have any idea of what it could be?

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

It seems to furuncles. It is a bacterial infection of the hair follicles. I would recommend you to take a course of oral and topical antibiotics and anti inflammatory medicines.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, Dermatologist
