Jess has what looks like a HUGE zit right at the edge of her armpit. It is raised, red and I think it is a boil.
She also has been getting BIG "zits" all over her chest. They are very painful even when not touched. She has popped a few and they are very infected. By big I mean a minimum of 3/4 " in diameter, some end up being an inch or more of raised angry looking bumps.
They were just on her upper chest, above her breasts. Now they have spread and are on the breasts themselves, as of a couple of days ago.
Tonight I found 3 on her thighs.
They don't look like "normal" zits, not even the bad whitehead type.
I am currently treating them with BurnJel Plus. It was designed for burns, but has 2.5% lidocaine and aloe and tea tree oil. On the more normal acne it clears them up in 2-3 days. It is great stuff.
Is this something we should see the doctor for? I am wondering if she has some sort of systemic infection that is showing up with these things.
