In instances such as this, there are several things that have to be taken under consideration.

The first is whether or not you actually have an infection, that needs to be confirmed by a doctor's exam.

And the next, of course, is what would be the appropriate antibiotic to treat it, if you do have one. Crushing it may not work, because you may not absorb enough to actually do you any good.

You can learn more Erythromycin details here.

Tablets haven't been formulated for transdermal absorption and you could end up creating a situation where you develop antibiotic resistance.

Thus, for anyone wanting an answer to a similar question, the best advice I can give is that you see your doctor, if you think you have an infection. That way, if you do, the proper treatment can be found.

Are there any questions or comments?
