I'm dealing with these small itchy bumps just inside my butt, near the anus. It's really uncomfortable because they itch a lot, and even when I try not to scratch, bits of my skin come off. I've got a picture if that would help explain it better. What do you think it could be?

I've got a pretty big boil on my left calf, and after a while, it started leaking pus and blood for around 15 days. It's been about 10 days since I began using antibiotics and ointment, as my dermatologist suggested, but it still isn't healing. I change the dressing with silver sulphadiazine gel every time. I'm really worried and wondering what might be going on. Any idea why it's not improving?
