Never had this previously -- the bug or the med.

My podiatrist likes to go top of the line, I have noticed, looking for novel or expensive remedies.

This med is for cornyebacterium.

And for the other bug (more common), Cipro is the rx and I'm not too happy about the potential side effects of that, either.
