I've been dealing with some pretty bad acne, and it got worse when I accidentally rubbed it too hard, turning into an infected pus. My doctor suggested I use T bact for it, but I'm really worried about the scars it might leave behind. What can I do to help with the scarring?

I've had my piercing for about 5 months now, and a week after getting it, this bump showed up that hasn't gone away. It kind of looks like a pimple. Ive been trying to get rid of it by using a neem stick, but each time I put in a new stick, the bump seems to get aggravated again. Whats going on with that? Why isn't it healing? What should I do to help it improve?

Kojiglo cream for local application for atleast 3 weeks is advised.
