Reddish Pimples With Pain And Itching On The Upper Legs And Buttocks. Allergy?
Hi, my boyfriend is a painter and 3 days ago acquired large red pimple like bumps on his upper legs and buttocks . After the first day he took Benadryl and used hydrocortisone cream it seemed to make them go down a bit, since them only used the cream and they got worse now they are turning into whiteheads. They are itchy and painful. He has no history of rashes . Could it be something work related or an allergy?
Hi welcome to Health care magic forum.
Thanks for calling H.C.M.Forum.
According to your description it appears to be the bacterial infection, that is why not responding to local steroids and antihistamine , benadryl.
I advise you to consult a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment. You may have to use antibiotics for cure of the infection. If not responding to treatment you may need to have culture and sensitivity of the pus of the boils.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. If you have any doubts you can approach H.C.M.again.
Best regards.
