Hi There,
I have psoriasis on my scalp and had a biopsy on Monday with 2 stitches to be removed on Monday. The stitches have healed fine but the area beside the biopsy is sore and red now and weeping a bit. The Doctor has given me antibiotics and knows I am scared to take them as I have had allergic reactions before. She said if I want i can monitor my scalp for a day or so before starting the tablets which I was happy to do but i have been reading on the net that by delaying antibiotics could make it spread and go in to my bloodstream or I could have MRSA. I am so scared as i am frightened to take the tablets but at the same time dont want to wait incase the infection gets worse. The Doctor said there is a 50/50 chance of me having to take the tablets. Please someone help me.
