Sore With Dark Brown Ring And White Center On The Butt Cheek, Buttock And Leg Pain. Remedy?

I have a sore at the top inside right butt cheek. It s dark brown ring with a white center and doesn t pop or drain anything. I did lance it a tiny bit with alcohol and a sterilized needle. It only bled. Im not exactly sure how long it was there before I noticed it, but it has been about 2 weeks since I became aware if it. It has not grown in any way since then. The area itself is tender and my buttock and leg ache as if I have sore muscles.

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

It seems that you may be having impetigo bullosa.

It is a bacterial disease caused by staphylococci.

Poor immunity,poor hygiene,anaemia,DM,HIV,other immunocompromised conditions might lead to such skin diseases.

You should go for blood tests..to rule out any disease which is responsible.

Take proper antibiotics in perfect dose for 2 weeks.

Take antiinflammatory drugs.

Have bath with dettol water.

Good diet and proper sleep might improve the immunity ..

I think you might improve ..

I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
