Hi. This is Doctor Debra Jaliman, board certified dermatologist in New York City and author of the book Skin Rules Trade Secrets From A Top New York Dermatologist, here to talk about Pseudomonas Aeroginosa and what you can do about it. Pseudomonas is a very severe skin infection caused by a bacteria. It can present as little pus pimples on your skin or a red inflamed rash. What can you do. If you have this infection you should go see a dermatologist or your regular internist. I usually requires antibiotics by mouth. The usual antibiotics that are used are often Cipro or you can use topical antibiotics. The topical antibiotic that is used is called Gentamicin. But this can be a serious infection and often warrants medical attention. Thank you.
