Bacterial Skin Infection
"I have been having skin infections on my breasts off and on for 6 yrs. Ever since I developed mastitis when I was breastfeeding. I&#039;ve been given Bactrim DS each time and advised to use  Neosporin CREAM, not ointment. I&#039;m not sure if it works all that great. It DOES take care of the red, rashy looking inflammation surrounding the &quot;boil&quot;/&quot;blister&quot;, but does not seem to even really touch the actual blister itself. Without medication it will take 3 - 4 weeks or so to heal, with meds it it takes 2 weeks. I think it has alot to do with the healing of the red rash part... so I continue to take it. The only side effect I have noticed is an almost unquenchable thirst. But, no nausea, insomnia or headaches for me."
