I was diagnosed with staph infection on bottom left lip ive been using the ointment for three days but it looks worst then what it did before meds?

Ointments not right: Ointments for a staph infection? Did a physician recommend such a treatment. Regardless it is not working. You are experiencing treatment failure. Staph can turn dangerous very quickly. Ointments will not treat staph infection. Please get to a competent physician urgently.
