Painful Spots On The Face, Pus Filled Cuticle On Toe. Suggestions?
I have to queries. I had a spot on my face that became infected so I applied some disinfecting cream. Yesterday I had about six other spots around the area and when they ruptured, it has caused another six to break out. They are very painful, and unlike any spots that I have ever experienced. Second, last night I went to bed with what I thought was a mosquito bit on my toe . When I woke up this morning, it s dark red, and next to the cuticle is a pussy white colour, and it is very painful to walk on. Any suggestions.
