What Causes Red Pimples Around The Anus Along With Inflammation And Discomfort?
Hi. My daughter (7) has a few red pimples around her anus, one of which is quite inflammed and causing her discomfort. I took her to the doctor yesterday for a infection in her foot for which she has been given antibiotics. Could this be related? She has also had bouts of tiredness and lethargy over the last week or two and so wondering if this could be related too. Thank you

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the red lesion near the anus could be due to allergic reaction and it may not be due to medicines some time it may be due to fecal material it self, as matter of fact clinical examination is must till then Diphenhydramine can be applied hope this information helps.
