Help me I had a skin culture done for Bacteria and it came back with
1) Klebsiella pneumoniae ( HEAVY GROWTH )
2) Escherichia coli ( HEAVY GROWTH )
Now I have taken Augmentin xr for 2 wks along with Gentamicin ont no change in skin color still red and when water comes in contact gets redder! So doctor now has me on Augmention 875 and gentamicin cream the dosage is augumentin 2x day and gent cream 4x days ! How long will it take to kill this infection I have been suffering for 18 mos with red scrotum skin and no other doctor ever did a swab test had skin biopsy done which came back variant of normal skin but nothing else and was told by alot of DRS it was in my head I had nothing to worry about ! I develop this problem 1 week afater going into a hotel and used the hot tub which was not to hot and got out found out later they dont use cholrine but salt so 18 mos later here I am
How long will it take to get my area cleared up and is this the right meds to use
