Skin infection on Right Earlobe
I have this infection on my right earlobe since last 2 days. It doesn't pain much as such but has a tingling feeling when it comes in touch with some thing. There's also redness around the same area.
Please suggest the cure i should be taking
Can i use Surfaz sn or sophramycine kind of creams or any home remedies as treatment or should consult some dermat right away.
I'm afraid if this is contagious as i stay in a hostel with other girls.
Pictures are attached for reference.
