I would try applying warm compresses for 15 minutes every several hours, pat dry and apply a combination antibacterial,antifungal,antiinflammatory ointment recommended by your pharmacist.. Discontinue it if spreading redness occurs or if no improvement and discuss an oral antibiotic use with your MD.
