Since rolling on the regular, I am breaking out in little pimples. Like sweat pimples.
One on my knee has gotten infected and it's red. What do you think?

The two pics with teh sores looking bright red were taken with flash. The first was taken without.
It was originally covered with a thin blister skin, but I applied an anti-fungal creme to it and the skin wiped away when I was cleaning it.
My guess is folliculitis or staph...go see a doctor.
I understand I should see a doctor. But should I be running to the hospital to Emerg, or just wait till tomorrow?
looks like staph to me. i woke up one morning with a simular blister and my knee was red/swollen and infected. i had no idea if i bumped it as i woke up and walked to the bathroom. i let it go a couple days and it increasingly got more painful. i would go to the doctor / hosp as soon as you can
dr tomorrow is fine unless you start having a fever or feel sick or the redness starts spreading significantly, then you need to go to the ER just in case. infections are nothing to mess with. I waited it out over a weekend once and almost ended up hospitalized. as it was they had to cut a bunch of my muscle out.
i agree the earlier the better
Thanks everyone.
Looks like its quite less infected than mine was, they gave me some pills to take for a week while trying to keep off it as well. Hopefully that's what they will do for you.
Sounds like and looks like somthing I had a few years ago. Ended up being msra type of staph. I had to take antibiotics and wash with a special soap, forgot what its called but Defense soap claims it kills staph. Good idea seeing a docttor tomorrow. Best wishes.
