bactroban

Avatar n tn I thought I had a pimple on my cheek, then the next day it looked more like a mozzie bite, the following day I thought a boil so I started putting bactroban on. It had like a hard core, was raised with what looked like a bit of puss in the middle surrounded by a red ring then the redness and swelling (like a great big puffy, red blister but not a blister) spread out towards my nose.
Avatar n tn While this is normal, it does increase the risk of infection developing in the bite. Before a bite becomes infected - here are some measures you can take to prevent a large spider bite from becoming infected. Follow these steps two or three times a day: Wash the bite with warm soapy water. Apply some diluted hydrogen peroxide (mix ½ water with ½ peroxide). Wash off the peroxide after two minutes. Apply an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment.

Avatar n tn We just were able to buy milk today for our supper, not a lot of extra money for doctor. Should I put bakingsoda paste and tough it out or should I go to Doc. I do not know what else they could do except maybe steriods? This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/261205'>rash or bites on breast</a>.
Avatar m tn Hi, Unless a spider is observed in the act of biting, it should not be assumed that a spider bite has occurred. Many spider bites, including those by some dangerous species, are relatively painless at first and may go unnoticed if not directly observed. Treatments for more minor bites should be as for any puncture wound. The wound should first be encouraged to bleed to wash out any foreign material and debris.
1470814 tn?1286732614 It was all extremely itchy but if I scratched or even rubbed it, it would burn. A few days after the bite, all my minor complaints became quite serious. For example; I was getting a slight cold and the sniffles turned into a major lung problem. I finally treated myself with penicillin and was ok after about 4 weeks. Any idea what could've bitten me?
Avatar f tn t know about spider bites, you actually posted in a forum dedicated to Lyme disease, but in general for anyone if you're experiencing anxiety and concern over a medical condition, then it seems worth it to get it checked out.

Avatar f tn I just wanted to check if I should be concerned about the bite? I was looking at spider bites online and it resembles a brown recluse spider bite, but I was asleep when it happened so I never saw it.
Avatar n tn i have a spider bite.
Avatar m tn I have some type of insect bite (I believe spider) on my stomach that has only gotten larger and itchier in the past few days. I've had all types of insect bites and stings before but never had this reaction. At first, the bite was slightly elevated and red. It was about the size of a quarter. Over the past few days, it's spread out significantly and is still elevated. It's about the size of 3 quarters. It's also dry and bumpy and has gotten more red.
Avatar n tn I went to the doctor a week ago, and she seemed to think they were bacterial and gave me a prescription for Augmentin and Bactroban ointment. They have slowly started to look better, but today I noticed they had a bulleyes appearance. Do you think this could be Lyme disease?
Avatar n tn My doctor gave me a penicillin shot and prescribed a penicillin prescription for me to take for about a week after the visit. Could the venom from the spider cause high blood pressure?
Avatar f tn Sounds like a spider bite that is infected; red lines indicative of infection. He needs a DOCTOR and ANTIBIOTICS ASAP.
Avatar f tn Could it be a spider bite?
2154011 tn?1336590315 s unlikely to be a spider bite as a spider will generally bite you once in self defense and then run away. Spider bites are also usually painful.
3934531 tn?1348668274 Maybe a spider bite. Perhaps a bee or wasp sting.
Avatar n tn Withour more info, it is hard to tell, could be a reaction to a bug bite such as a spider. If the symptoms do not go away, I would see your doctor.
Avatar n tn They have been there for over a week and are quite itchy. Each bite has a central ***** mark, like a beesting, and is swollen like a big misquito bite. The skin on top of each bite is dry and flaky (new today) and the skin around the cluster of bites is getting dark, like a slight bruise. I suspect that I was bitten by a spider while asleep. There was never any pain or stinging, just a lot of itching.
