Question

Corn - Skin

Asked for Male, 26 Years

Hi, I had applied corn tape for 5 days and the puss came out along with the tape when I removed. Should I apply a new tape or consulting a doctor will be required. Is it fine to use antibiotic ointment like Neosporin h after removing the tape? Thanks in advance, Sunil Chaurasia
