You can start with a mupirocin ointment. But it's best to get it evaluated properly with photographs to get the best diagnosis and treatment.; as multiple things can appear as pimples over the area.

Hello.
Panderm plus apart from antibiotic, antifungal, also contains steroids. So this ointment is better not to be applied to glans penis. An antibiotic ointment containing mupirocin will suffice.

The nerve pain is due to long standing diabetes. That is what will lead to recurrent ulcers on feet. Please moisturise feet daily. Take treatment immediately if there is any sign of infection. Control diabetes and blood pressure well. Do not let her walk barefoot

If its a superficial would then clean it daily with betadine solution and apply mupirocin ointment and do dressing daily. If it is very deep then visit your nearest doctor for better assessment and to rule out infection or deep tissue trauma.
