Pimple on areola area near the nipple
Hello, i have got a pimple on my areola area, it is since 1 year and it was small then, i once squeezed it and white sticky substance used to come out but now from past 1 week it's big and red and filled with pus which got burst itself today and became smaller in size but it is still red. I am currently on lung tb medications also and getting small bumps like pimples on my forehead also.
I have a history of acne treatment.
I asked a gynaecologist about what it was, they recommended it is because of breast abscess which happens when we take tb medicines. So they suggested to squeeze it and take augmentin 625 duo for 5 days.
Is it alright to take augmentin. Will it create any impact on tb medicines.
Can you please help me. Does it actually happen when a person takes tb medicines.
This is something new to me and i am worried now.
