Hello!
My friend had staph -1.5 weeks ago (finished an amoxicillin prescription for this), went a bit over the top with an alcohol scrub, and basically really irritated her skin. it turned into a big red rash. she saw a GP 5 days ago who gave her a steroid cream, but this appears to have made it far worse, and she stopped applying it.

Today she woke up with some weird red bumps going up her arm. she says they are itchy, and quite hard to the touch. she says some haveshe has no systemic symptoms.
What are these red nodule looking things going up her arm and what should we do, if anything?
Thanks so much for reading.

Today she woke up with some weird red bumps going up her arm. she says they are “mildly” itchy, and quite hard to the touch. she has no systemic symptoms.
