Hello,
Thank you for your query at DoctorSpring.com
Will it be possible for you to upload a high resolution picture of the bump? Once you do it will be forwarded to the specialist.
If there is difficulty uploading on the website then you can mail it to [email protected]

Hello
Thanks for posting your query.
I can understand your concern.
Usually herpes presents with a cluster of fluid filled blisters. One blister herpes is unusual. I would recommend it to be treated as a bacterial infection of the skin.
You could apply Mupirocin cream on it twice a day for a week and see if it resolves. In order to prevent new ones from arising i would first recommend getting your blood sugar tested. Also next time you get a lesion you need to visit your doctor who can send the pus if present for testing.
Take care
Regards.

Do you think it's herpes? There's no pus it's like swollen
Hello
I don't think it's herpes but a furuncle which is a bacterial infection. If it doesn't subside with the cream i would recommend taking an oral antibiotic like azithromycin that would help resolve it.
Take care

Hello, I just have one more concern. Today I tried squeezing the lesion and yellowish pus came out them clear fluid. It still is one bump. Do you still think it's a bacterial infection?
Hello,
Please don't squeeze the lesion. You are making it worse by squeezing it. If the pus has come out it is definitely a bacterial infection, Please start treatment recommended.
