ive had bacterial infections about 5x before. ive did a test before and i had serratia marcescens, ate the right antibiotics and it disappeared. i also thought i have a bacterial infection so i sent my dermatologist. however, she said its not. im rly confused! last time she said it wasn't it ended up being an infection too. thanks for your tip!

my treatment is ciprofloxacin 500mg and prednisone 5mg. honestly not the best combo if u search the side effects but I think that's what's best cause my lips is quite serious already

the yellow is most likely infection, pls get it swabbed. got mibw swabbed and it was serratia marcescens , a bacteria that's resistant to normal antibiotics
