Hello,
Thanks for the query,
He might be suffering from a deep bacterial infection.
Sometimes the bacterial infections are recurrent
Prolonged treatment with antibiotics is needed.
A culture from the fluid and sensitivity for antibiotic will be of great help.
Please meet a dermatologist.
Let me know you have any other doubt
