Large puss wounds all over the body
My dad is 55 years old and a little diabetic. He also had blood pressure and weight is about 80kgs. In the past month, some very large puss wounds have begun to appear on his body and is causing a lot of pain and discomfort. It started with its appearance on the top of his head, then at the back side of the neck. These two appeared like two big yellow giants. The third one appeared at the public region, near his penis, on his left leg. And the fourth one is now again near the back side of the neck.
Normal antiseptics seem to fail and there is no relief about the situation. Please help.
