He also has severe chronic neutropenia. Im worried because his count is low and he's been on omnicef for antibiotic and nothing has changed its only getting worse. Its all over his diaper area and has 1 huge boil looking thing and then what look like blisters. Do you have any advice on possible treatment or what I should do with him next because I would assume this could potentially be dangerous and deadly for him. My 2 yr old son possibly has MRSA.

It does sound a little unusual. But the key is whether it is healing or getting worse. Go straight back if it seems to be getting worse.

She poked through the top and only a little liquid came out. She said that antibiotics will take care of the majority of the pus. I do not know if this is true and would like an explanation on why she did not drain it fully and if antibiotics could get rid of the majority of the pus. Please Help!

But getting rid of it from their nose may offer only temporary respite as reinfection can occure again via another silent carrier, family pet etc. A hand washing pattern that includes meal times, first thing in the morning, last thing at night and after return from outside activities will reduce the risk to all by quite a lot.
