3 months ago i had a zit on my left leg. I tried to pop it before it was ready and it became infected. Took antiobiotics and knocked it out. A month kater, same thing on my right leg. I was stupid and did the same thing got infected again, antiobiotics again. Now i have another one, havent touched it, it formed a white head, but its pretty big. Im 44 yrs old, have had leg zits for a long time, but now they seem to be getting worse. Why?
HelloWithin a period of three months, you had three ZITS and pop it every time, got infection and took antibiotics. The possibilities of such zits may be due to :1 Some bacterial infection like staphylococcus or streptococcus or any other bacteria. Diagnosis can be confirmed by blood culture or biopsy of affected parts.2 The next reason of such zits may be due to dermatitis or edematous dermatitis. Diagnosis can be confirmed by physical examination by a dermatologist .3 At the age of 44 years sometimes due to lowering of immunity skin got infection. So please consult a dermatologist and get his opinion.
