Skin Infections

I don't even know where to start. I have sores all over my legs and arms that have gotten infected. Behind my right ear I drained a big cyst and a smaller cyst (which at the time I thought was a pimple), my gums have infection coming out and I had either one huge everywhere or a couple cysts in my vagina that have drained. Some of the sores have healed and others have gotten worse. The skin by the corners of my nails where they are dried and cracked are starting to release infection. Dr gave me Bactrim without a visit. I'm scared it is something worse than he believes it to be.

Hello, Jamie! How are you? Has there been any change?

You really need to have your doctor check these out and do a culture to see what is causing them.

The FDA lists the typical Bactrim side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea.
