Accepted Answer

: You are likely colonized with staff or other germs that enter any site from touch where you scratch. Colonies often reside in your nose and easily transfer. Antibiotic cream at the nasal entrance 2x/day can decrease spread as well a Clorox added to bathwater. Your doc may add treatment. The issue is separate from any reflux.

Question 5

hi dr, i have a fever blister or cold sore on my mouth. which is something i usually get when feeling feverish. for some odd reason, now it is coupled with pimples resembling a rash on my back as well as on my rib cage. what could it be?

Accepted Answer

Herpes zoster?: If the pimples/rash on your back and "rib cage" (your chest?) are all in one large cluster, you probably have herpes zositer, also called shingles. It's caused by a different herpes-type virus than the one that causes oral herpes (cold sores). Shingles needs immediate diagnosis and treatment to avoid serious pain both in the next few days and ongoing pain later. See a doctor ASAP.

Question 6

hi i was wondering what causes pimple on my bum cheeks like five i noticed it the next day after using public toilets is there any harm to me?

Probably: folliculitis, not related to public toilet use, but more to local irritation, perspiration, or oily skin.  Seek medical opinion if they persist over one week, because it could be something else.

Question 7

what causes pimple like marks on the buttocks?

Accepted Answer

Acne: If you are unsure what it is see your doctor, otherwise if it is acne see a doctor for prescription creams to apply.  Start using salicylic acid to was the acneic area on your buttocks when in the shower.  Avoid baths and hot tubs, lakes and oceans (oxymetazoline) until clear.

Question 8

a spot on my chest looks like a pimple but it isn't. what could it be?

Accepted Answer

Sebaceous cyst /acne: If it was a pimple , it would be infected and painful and red , if its not painful it might be a blocked sebaceous cyst , usually they are benign but occasionally they can become infected and need drainage. I would not bother with it if it wasnt bothering me much :).

Question 9

Accepted Answer

Pimple : Keep it clean and if worsens or becomes painful get it examined

Question 10

Fooled you: It sounds like it was a closed comedone (aka: pimple / blackhead) which often has a tan/grey/black surface on the plug, but can be expressed by squeezing.
