What Are Spreading Itchy Lesions On Foot With A Burning Sensation Suggestive Of?
I have boils/lesions on my foot that were Itchy at first. I am feeling a burning sensation on and off and applying betnovate n on the itchy foot. I am 32 years old and I dont drink or smoke. Will taking avil help? Instead of avil can I have any other medicine as it instigates drowsiness. Also I should mention that it seems the boils/lesions are spreading now.

Hello,
It would be better if you attach a photo of lesions in reports and I can give a better opinion. According to your description it can be shingles. If this is true you can use acyclovir ointment and acyclovir tablets.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
