Avatar f tn I remember placing Bactroban on it which seemed to speed up the healing process, could this cold sore cream help a bacterial infection or could bactroban help a cold sore? Please help P.s the blisters come up small and then pop and crust over yellow like a weeping cut, it has only had one big blister before. I placed betadine on it and that seemed to help but so did bactroban, it also tingles before it comes up and gets itchy but NEVER hurts!

Avatar n tn I have switched body soaps, wash my armpits two to three times a day, gone to a medicated baby powder instead of deodorant, tried 1% hydrocortisone cream instead of medicated powder and nothing works. My doctor said it looked fungal and recommended Lotrimin, an antifungal cream. I am three weeks on this and the rash is getting worse...not better. I told him one or two of your readers recommended Bactroban mupirocin, but he dismissed that advice for the Lotrimin.
Avatar m tn By the way i have acne all over my body from my childhood which is very mild nowadays, i read regarding folliculitis and some how i feel i am close to it. As the blisters were formed where the skin might have rubbed with underwear. Would you suggest any medication for me. I got the below medication from site, do u suggest to use them. Cleansing Solution: Hydrogen Peroxide Ointment or Cream: bacitracin, polymyxin B sulfate (Polysporin), clindamycin, erythromycin, or mupirocin (Bactroban).
Avatar m tn I presented with only one sore at my cheekbone and was given clindamycin orally for 14 days and Bactroban ointment for topical use. The sore was believed to be an early indication of MRSA. I quickly developed cellulitis and swelling near, but not touching, the apparent abscess, as well as blisters in my nose. I used the mupiricin.(Bactroban) to keep the nasal blisters moist. Now diagnosed with post-herpetic neuralgia, but I still have blisters in my nose treating with Bactroban.
Avatar m tn I have been searching all over the internet and I can't find anyone with the same condition as me. It has started 2 years ago, small pimples and inflammation in my crease of nose and on chin. At this time it was not noticeable but has kept spreading since. It's near my nostril, chin and mouth. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/713/photoon20130226at737pm2.jpg/ http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/163/photoon20130226at737pm.
