Suggest Treatment For Sore Rashes On Stomach

Hi, I have a sore rash on my stomach that appears to be an infection due to shaving with very small blisters that are leaking clear fluid. I have been treating with aloe vera and tea tree oil and covering the area with a gauze. I just would like to know what is the infection called and am I taking the right steps in healing my rash? and also what are the signs of it healing? Its leaving a minor scar because the rash has become darker in appearance once the boils have drained? There seems to be scarring?

Hello,

Welcome to healthcare magic.

You have not mentioned your age and gender.

From the history and description, I would consider possibilities of impetigo, blistering disorders like bullous pemphigoid and pemphigus vulgaris.

Please consult a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis.

You could apply an antibiotic cream like mupirocin or fusidic acid till you meet a doctor.

Hope this helps you.

Take care.
