Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
Thank you for the reply.
I have it for a long time. It is Itchy, and then I scratch it. Nobody else infected in my family. Is this dermatitis?
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
I read and understand your concern.
Looking like pyoderma gangrenosum, I would advise you to go biopsy in order to confirm the diagnosis. Nevertheless, you can use Mupirocin ointment twice daily. I hope it helps. If you have any other question please do not hesitate to contact us.
Looking forward to your response in order to help you.
Thank you.
