Hello. I ve suffered from a stomach bug for three days now, accompanied by on-and-off fever. Yesterday I noticed a number of small, raised bumps on my buttocks, close to the anus but not right next to it. They are very itchy and tender. What is this? Thank You in advance for any answer provided.
Hi. From the history you have provided, it looks to me that you are having gastroenteritis- the soiling of the skin around has given you the itchy and tender bumps. A proper antibiotic cover for 5 days should solve your problem. Have site bath in warm water. Apply liquid provide iodine locally, NO OINTMENTS please ! IF there is no response within 3 days please visit a Doctor. Anyway you may need prescription based antibiotics.
