Help. should I go back to Urgent care
Hi! So rewind over a month ago, I had a sinus infection… the inside of my nose one side felt raw, I could feel a scab forming I figured it was from blowing my nose and nasal draining…. it went away then I had a pimple that above my eyebrow. didn’t think anything of it. a couple days in it felt like a blister. I did pick at it bc i’ve never had to deal with this before. i thought it was weird bc it was scaly and itchy. So i did a telehealth appt and they said contact dermatitis. so i treated it with some hydrocortisone and it went away after about a week or so. fast forward to now… I got another pimple near the original one started treating it same way. THEN outside of my nose one day had what felt like there was a scab, i picked up! now this is what im working with! I went back to telehealth Monday they prescribed me Keflex and Mupurocin. So needless to say im assuming its been staph all along and I am having MAJOR anxiety thinking im never going to combat this thing! I made a dermatologist appt cant get in until 8/20 should I go to Urgent care and have a real person look at it? culture it? I’m freaking out!! since starting my antibiotics monday night everything seems to kind of be the same. Not better not worse. The lesions on my forehead are scabbing and are itchy
any insight would be appreciated thank you
*** UPDATE*** Went back to Urgent care I was given an IV of Rocephin. and an RX for Bactrim to add on top of my keflex. They cultured my nose. Does taking the bactrim with the keflex seem
like overkill!? when should I be able to see changes in the right direction with this new protocol?
