Thanks in advance. :roll:
Four things ...
1. A trip to the Dr is the best advice
2. Beware you are not re-infecting yourself or others ... personal hygiene, linens, towels, clothing, etc.
3. Time !
4. And ........... Patience!!!!
So sorry you have to deal with it, but no choice now, right?
I hope you have followed the advice in step #1!! I've learned the hard way, take the side effects and get the shot and treatment following. I think it goes systemic on me and begins breaking out in other places. Get some help!!
PS - Hot water baths are a NO, NO.
