Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I am a 62 yo female, woke Friday AM with a small raised bump on right lower medial buttock. Lesion has now formed, approx nickel sized, has raised pustules which rupture overnight. Lesion is very red, itching intermittently but not as bad as initially. The pustules seem to form during the day and rupture overnight. It is not painful, nor is the surrounding skin red or swollen. Is this something that needs medical attention, or will just keeping it clean and covered be enough?
