I have a pimple on my leg, what should I do?

Question

Hello, I have a pimple that has been swelling for a few days in my groin area and the whole area is super sensitive and hot to the touch in the area. I played soccer this morning and it's been super painful ever since. What can I do, apply an antibiotic cream? Should I consult? Thank you very much for your quick response it is much appreciated. Have a nice day!

Hi, thanks for your question! For now, I only recommend keeping the area clean with soap and water. You can outline the red area with a pencil, if the redness goes beyond the outline, you will need to see a doctor. In the meantime, it is very important not to try to puncture or open the area. I hope I have been helpful, I remain available if you have any further questions! Tom Samaha, pharmacist We'd love to!
