Common Questions and Answers about Bactroban skin infections

bactroban

Avatar m tn Hair follicles that are blocked by greasy creams, petroleum jelly, or similar products are more vulnerable to infection. Bacterial skin infections can be spread by shared cosmetics or washcloths, close human contact, or by contact with pus from a boil or carbuncle. Treatment includes antibiotics and do not touch or pick them up. You can however apply topical antibiotic creams like Neosporin or Bactroban.
Avatar f tn I do not know what is the mater with my skin? Do I have folliculitis or Sycosis? Or the overdosed Bactroban make my skin like that? Or any other problems? Could you please kindly tell me how to cure it? Many thanks. I appreciate your helps a lot.
Avatar f tn I was prescribed bactroban. The physician I saw said it was a mild skin infection. I used the ointment and on Tuesday, May 5, I woke up with a killer headache and a sore tongue. I continued to use the bactroban until Wednesday, May 6. My tongue was white so, I went back to urgent care. The physician said that I was probably having an allergic reaction to the bactroban and prescribed me an oral antibiotic. I used the new medicine with no issues.
Avatar n tn Bactroban is awesome. 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!!
Avatar n tn Yeast infections can be treated with anti-fungal creams like Monistat. Bacterial infections are treated with application of anti-bacterial ointments like Bactroban. Corticosteroid creams of mild to moderate strength are used in short-term courses for non-infective eczematous or inflammatory skin conditions. It is best to get it examined to confirm a diagnosis before treatment is initiated. ref:http://www.netdoctor.co.uk/menshealth/facts/balanitis.
Avatar f tn A few days later, I noticed that the skin around the burn was still warm to the touch (not burning hot but definitely warmer than the rest of my skin) and that I still had a low-grade fever (ranging from 99.0-99.9). Also, I noticed that my entire body felt like it was constantly trembling and that my pulse was constantly rapid. I went back to the doctor and he took a culture and gave me bactroban to put on the burn until the results come back.
Avatar m tn In most cases of folliculitis and boils, the damaged follicles are infected with the bacteria Staphylococcus (staph). Bacterial skin infections can be spread by shared cosmetics or washcloths, close human contact, or by contact with pus from a boil or carbuncle. You should not apply a steroid cream like hydrocortisone without your doctor’s prescription. You can however use Bactroban cream since it is an antibiotic cream. I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
Avatar f tn , the skin was tender just below the penis head. We have sex without condoms and I have had trouble with yeast infections mostly all my life. Could this be my fault? About the same time he got the rash/condition, I got tiny cold sores inside my mouth. I feel really terible about this, because I am scared that I caused this condition for him! We have tried Bactroban ointment, and it seems to help, but I don't know if it is the right medication. Please help??
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 m tn Hi. I am a 38 year old virgin and a couple of months ago I chafed the underside of my penis while masturbating. There was not any bleeding and my urinary functions are excellent. No burning while I pee. No prostate issues. The only problem that I have had is soreness. I went to the doctor's office and my doctor prescribed Bactroban for me. I took it for about a month and abstained from masturbation.
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 n tn I have had jock itch for about a year now in the groin on left and right inner thigh. My question is, can bactroban cream treat and cure jock itch? Its the only cream I have right now. I'm trying to save a trip and money if possible. So far I've been applying rubbing alcohol and it seems to clear the rash a little but not completely. I've been doing this for 3 days.

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 f tn Mupirocin is the same as Bactroban. It is a nasal compound that my ENT has mixed for sinus infections. The eye is sore today. I have little vision in the eye. However, its pressure has risen, in the last few months, from from about 0 to fifteen. I will call my retinologist. Thank you.
Avatar m tn Boils are caused by infection of the hair follicle by staph aureus.Bacterial skin infections can be spread by shared cosmetics or washcloths, close human contact, or by contact with pus from a boil or carbuncle. Apply warm compresses on the boil and keep the area clean.Drainage of the boil is done only when it becomes soft and forms a head.Take some over the counter pain reliever and consult a doctor for examination and antibiotics prescription.
Avatar m tn I have a question on some skin issues I've been having lately. Since April I've been having folliculitis on the back of my neck at the edge of my hair line. My doctor took a sample from one of the bumps and prescribed me bactrim antibiotic. It helped but once I ran out of medicine it came back. I'm on bactroban for the bumps. The next issue I'm having is dry flaky skin on my face. The dermatologist I went to sold me a face wash and moisturizer.

Avatar n tn What I would like to know is - Is this a rash from Bactroban Cream as it is not continuos spreading down my chin but a healthy skin layer and then the rash? And after the actual infection (refness, pain etc) is gone, is it just scar tissue on the chin (with a red colour), like if you scraped your knee and it would heal over time but leave a light nut healthy red area?
