bactroban

Avatar n tn m in extreme discomfort at this stage. Went to a walk in clinic on day 2 of this and was persrcibed bactroban cream. This has decreased the discomfort on the foreskin..but urinatiom remains very painful. Also have been concerned about urethra opening. A few day into by current outbreak, the urethra openning healed together/over. Wasn't aware till I went to urinate and nothing came out. After a few seconds, the build up of pressure forced it's way out, but of course the area bleed a bit.
Avatar f tn I get boils "down there" and use prescribed Bactroban Cream on them after applying a warm compress. They never get red (I catch them early) and usually go away one to two weeks of medicating. I currently have a boil that this med is not helping. I usually get the boils in the same places once or twice a year, but this is a new one and it's in a very inconvenient spot. My question/concern is...
Avatar n tn Picking or other pimples would be means of other openings and movement of the bacteria from one area to the next. Good face and hand and nail washing evey day will help keep staph bacteria levels low. Staph tends to colonize in the nose, you can get a nasal swab test at Dr.s office to see if you are "colonized" with staph. But most people have it on them in normal amounts as it is a fact of life that that bacteria lives as we do.
Avatar f tn This is 15 years later and now its back, I have chapped skin under my nose and all around my mouth and lips and also under my eye, it almost looks like I have a black eye because of the redness and swelling. It is now on my hands and fingers. My symptoms are, itchiness, chapping, red and inflamed, cracked.
Avatar m tn ENT said I had some colonies in nose soUsed Bacrtoban for 3 days and slight pain in my nose went away per ENT. I stopped the bactroban after 3 days because I was not sleeping but I was also using Nasocort and maybe that was the culprit. Cold gone sinus not infected but having some pain that feels like a tooth ache and slight tickle or sting in nostrils when breathing. Left septum is a little enlarged.
Avatar n tn I approached to a doctor he prescribe me some antibiodic caps and Bactroban (Cream) , Thank God, Now i cured. but still my new skin is very thin and sensitive. Please advice me which soap i have to used and what precaution to be taken after intercourse (should be rinse with any antibacterial liquid). Also, please suggests me any cream to thicken my skin its very thin i am afraid during intercouse it may rub and damage. I'd appreciate you....please advice me.
Avatar m tn As i know that Herpes virus would be dormant for a while may be even for an year, so I again went for IgG bloodtests this week for HSVI and HSVII and the results came out negative today but i still suspect whether the blood tests are accurate or not. Coming to my questions. I should have the antibodies developed in my blood for HSVI and HSVII, if i have the Herpes in my body as its been long time since i had unprotective oral sex? Is my understanding correct?
Avatar n tn hi, I think the lesion that you remove each time by scraping is a part of the healing skin, which appears to be a scab at first and then develops a skin like color. This is a weak spot and on continued removal and regrowth may become a chronic lesion. I would recommend you to keep the area as it is and not to try and remove the scab again and again as it would turn the lesion into a chronic lesion. This may be harmful for your skin and cause you much more discomfort.
Avatar f tn Five days later cultured again and it came back negative. Said I should use Bacitracin for a year as Bactroban burned and dismissed me.(I am allergic to all antibiotics but two and most other drugs-happens over time) 2nd ENT said Bacitracin irritates and easy to get allergic to it. Already allergic to Neosporin. She said my nose is extremely dry causing the scabs, crusting and rawness. Even feels sore down the back of my nose into the throat area now.
Avatar f tn I therefore put more Bactroban on. Probably as I put too much dosage on my face, I felt the skin on my face was pickled and I can see some wrinkles on my face. 4-5 days later, ances disappeared. However, I feel my skin is not as healthy as before since that. In the past, as I have dry skin, I have no ances on my face. But right now, even though I still have dry skin, I can always find out some little ances wounded by the shaver, sometimes they are serious, sometimes not.
616582 tn?1225068601 Bactroban is actually mupirocin not an ointment of Bactrim. So it is a different antibiotic. If you were allergic to Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprin) I would think you would react to it all over your body if it is a pill form. A lot of people are allergic to the sulfa drug in the Bacterim. Did you have a pill or ointment? The ointment is called Bactroban (Mupirocin). So if you took the bactrim pill for your sinus infection you usually break out all over or at least on the chest.
314554 tn?1337454119 GP easily removed lesions and prescribed Bactroban and 2 oral antibiotics. 1 was Flucloxacillin.Lesions on face/neck healed rapidly. Used Baycuten-Nos scars w/topical heparin (MPS)/Retin-A on face/neck.8 wks lapse & still 2 quarter size crusts on sternum. Lesions flatter & the new crust is ugly-looks untreated-skin around lesions flatter & raised. Crusts not easy to remove=painful and impossible. Soaking crusts, moist compress, white vinegar & hydrogen peroxide not work.
Avatar n tn I get the same so called folliculitis on my neck and it *****! I apply bactroban on the infected area once or twice a week and it solves the issue every time. Have him see a dermatologist and ask for bactroban or munipriocinit will save his life!!
1415174 tn?1453243103 t get the shingles vaccine then, is this correct since Neosporin contains neomycin, polymixin and bacitracin? I am thinking of getting allegy patch testing (but the lab in our town isn't open yet). I am allergic to all of the antibiotic topicals (bacitracin, metrogel, neosporin, clindaymin topical (cleocin T), mupirocin) as well as two steroid topicals and possibly tetracycline as well.
Avatar m tn Retract the foreskin daily and soak in warm water to clean penis and foreskin. Apply bacitracin (not Neosporin) for pediatric patients if bacterial infection is suspected. Apply topical clotrimazole for adult men with probable candidal balanitis. If the symptoms persist, you would need to consult your doctor. Let us know if you need any other information. Regards.
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.
1666982 tn?1445198395 How often do you apply bactroban? And do you also apply it into your nostrils? I also have the same problem.
Avatar n tn Please help me out, I am very much worried. I have these blisters growing on the skin of my testes which never open up neither fade away but have no pain. But I experience terrible Itching on the skin of my testes, specially at the night time because of which I cannot have a good nights sleep. I have this for a year now and haven't been to a doctor till now. The blisters never open up and does not emit anything either. Sometimes they become small and sometimes they grow a bit bigger.
Avatar m tn One of the open blisters without a blister roof looks bright red, indented, and burnt which has me worried about leaving a scar. None of them look infected though since I've kept them covered with Bacitracin at all times. I'm not sure how my scars will heal without blister roofs to keep them protected. Keeping these moist is the way to go? I still don't know if I am taking care of these properly since I was only told to keep applying Bacitracin on these burns by the laser office.
Avatar n tn razors, electric little machines, waxes, lotions,...you name it. I cannot afford laser removal, so I am still dealing with the hair. If I shave, it grows back on the same day! If I remove it with the electric machine or wax...it doesn't last more than 2 or 3 days, and I get ingrown hairs...really deep inside the skin. I have ugly, horrible scars in my legs from trying to pull ingrown hairs out. I am desperate.
Avatar m tn 2 days has been passed AND I FEEL GREAT!! Bacitracin helped me a lot, i have no more burning, no more pain on penis (which was bothering me terribly) The only thing left there is the little pressure. Hopefully this will disappear by the time as well. Thanks for the great tip! Bacitracin is over-the-counter cream, I applied 3 times a day, hope no one will suffer from this terrible pain anymore, without knowing what to do.
Avatar m tn Hello everyone, After dealing with hormornal adult acne for 5 years, I turned to Smoothbeam. I had Smoothbeam done for the second time 5 days ago. Soon after the procedure, I developed 7 blisters on my face. Out of my 7 blisters, 5 have popped already. I think two of them popped on their own after a day, but I popped three of them by accident. Sigh. The popped ones have taken crescent shapes.
Avatar f tn Since then, the area around the burn seems very faintly pink (when I had the cellulitis it was red) and still warm and tender to the touch, and also that I am experiencing alot of numbness and tingling and a burning sensation on my left leg, both arms, and my face. I am still shaking and my pulse is still rapid and my heart is fluttery.
Avatar f tn t use any bandages ~ just put the bacitracin on and the belly belt to it can heal naturally....the bacitracin will heal it and prevent the belly belt from sticking to it ~ BEST OF LUCK!!!!...remember, take it easy ~ !!
Avatar m tn I am 22 and I have not had sex before of any kind. What this could be ? Will a Bacitracin Ointment helps to remove it ? Thanks.
