To address the infection and prevent further progression, your father-in-law may need a combination of antibiotics and wound care. The specific antibiotics and treatment plan will depend on the severity of the infection and the underlying cause. It is important to follow the doctor's recommendations closely. In this case, it is crucial to consult with a healthcare professional, such as a wound care specialist or a dermatologist, for a thorough evaluation and personalized treatment plan. Topical antibiotics and wound dressings may be prescribed to help heal the affected areas. Additionally, oral antibiotics may be necessary to treat the infection from within. Please ensure that your father-in-law receives the appropriate medical care as soon as possible to prevent further complications.
