What Treatment Is There For My Skin Problem Which Starts With A Cut On My Hand And Ends With A Pimple On My Face ?

I am having a very strange skin infection that affects basically my entire body and I do not know what is causing it. It usually can start with a cut on my hand that will become infected and somehow I will get a pimple on my face at the same time that will basically turn into a boil like area that will have some of the same built up fluid as the infected cut on my hand. This process seems to occur roughly 4-5 times a year.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
You seem to have a higher propensity to get all kinds of infection. Skin and superficial infections are a common occurrence and if you feel these are more persistent in your case then you need to get associated problems like diabetes, immunodeficiency state ruled out after consulting your physician.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
