Should I Fear Septicaemia Because Of The Itchy Spot On Ear?
Hi, I'm 13 and I had a spot on my ear which got really itchy and I picked the scab off. I itched several times and now it is all pussy/liquid is coming out of it and is red. It looks like it is starting to spread as it has got red rashes all around my ear now and I'm worried I've got septicaemia or something bad. I'm really scared, I hope you can help

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having dermatitis and after itching there might be having infection giving rise this problem.
Nothing to worry, go for one antibiotic medicine course for 3 days and you will be alright.
Apply antibiotic cream after proper cleaning.
Take antihistamin like Benadryl or cetrizine for itching.
Ok and take care.
