I had it on my back and my dumbass pop it then after that I had a huge cyst started growing the worst pain I ever endured because the cyst was large it was pushing up against my spine. But I’m good now for anyone who is reading this.
I get red bumps when my facial hair starts growing back after I have shaved not sure I'f there pimples or just inflamed follicles pretty annoying though happens frequently

I’ve been suffering with scalp acne for years. I have painful blister like acne all over scalp. Some turn into massive boil like zits. Takes a week before I can even touch it then it burst white puss. After my hair falls out and I get bald spot for months. Right now I have a bad breakout and have about 20 lumps not big but hurt and itch. Liquid blood comes out and now I have red patch with scab where they were. So it’s not like regular zit

i used to take isotretinoin for more than year as advised by doctor and also wash scalp with benzoyl peroxide but still its not gone. Its more than 3 years now i don't take any medicine for it. but my hair fall was increased this year. i don't know if there is any end to it.
ITSLIAMLEWIS what’s the amount of white conger do you recommend to take every day? What about the skin discoloration/darkening and the swollen skin around the area?
I’ve got folliculitus currently on my arm. Started out as a spot but got infected after Jiu jitsu. Didn’t think much of it but I scratched it and spread it all over my forearm. New pustules everyday. Blisters etc. the doc gave me fucidin and tbh I think that made it worse. I came across a thread on Reddit where a guy used isopropyl rubbing alcohol. 70% is vital. That’s the percentage that staph can’t take. So I started doing it. Put some on a cotton bud and coated my arm in it in the morning and before bed. On day 3 and a very noticeable improvement. Itching is gone. Redness has gone down massively and it seems to be healing. Yellow and green puss in gone. It’s early days so I’ll come back and update in a few weeks. But this is the first thing I’ve tried that’s made any difference.
May I ask how long the dark spots left by folluculitis last? My job somewhat hinges upon pristine looking skin so I wish to know to help with my anxiety
Update, it didn’t work and just aggravated my skin. However I tried two different things at the same time that may have helped. I don’t know which for sure but I cut everything out of my diet except red meat and I used a surgical body wash called Octenisan. Cleared it up after a few weeks. Stopped using the wash but kept a lot of crap out of my diet. Hasn’t come back
My facial hair grows back into my skin and makes these white pimples emerge. I get super itchy and irritated and after a relief of scratching my face is red. How can i permanently cure it?
Ive used anti biotics given from doctors and it works for a couple weeks but then it comes back and is annoying Edit: been taking Accutane(Isotretinoin), and so far my scalp has never been more alive 🤪.
Doctors really irritate me. I've been dealing with this for a long time and all dermatologist do is give a rub on alcohol. First of all, it is no different than buying clearasil over the counter. Second, it does not work. I need to rub it all over my back and it is a large area to cover that you run out in no time, plus I can't even reach around my back,. Third, I keep telling doctors I need something to prevent it, not to just get rid of the pimples I already have.
Michael Williams i agree completely. If it is widespread you need a lot more than just a topical. There are other conditions which may require a biopsy and different diagnosis such as eosinophilic folliculitis , pityrisporum folliculitis, testosterone induced and follicular variant of atopic dermatitis. Diet may play a role but less likely. In some cases i will do a complete hormonal workup. Job history and work environment can also play a role.

Question Doctor...do you recommend a shampoo with benzoyl peroxide to treat scalp folliculitis? Under my dermatologist's care, I've already tried antibiotics, steroids, all kinds of ointments, Ketoconazole shampoo and my scalp folliculitis comes back. I've been trying to treat it for 2 years now. Any feedback is much appreciated 🙏
@itzssd no, unfortunately still dealing with the same issue. What helps though is Vitamin A 3000 IU daily as it dries up the oil production. You may need a higher dose though...can you check with your doctor and see if you could incorporate it into your daily regimen...?
hello! i have some scars and pimples due to folliculitis and I'm getting antibiotics for it! but it still remains what do i do??! and i lost some hair due to this??
I’ve had it for years as well. Wash your hair every 3 days unless you wash it everyday due to oily hair which is fine. Before getting out of the shower, run the water over your head in Luke warm water then cool then cold each time for 15 seconds. Dry your hair with towel or air dry but try to stay away from blow drying unless you must. This will work 100% Stick to the same routine. Sometimes I take an ice cube and rub it in the spot that hurts for a few minutes as well. Works like magic
Oh! Was it a new information that we should see a dermatologist? Then why did we watch your video and why u used the title treatment? Anyways fusidic acid or sodium phosphate ointments and antibacterial face wash used in mild quantity in order to avoid irritating the bumps is a better cure. Don't use alcoholic antiseptics or cider vinegar. Just don't forget to clean ur skin with antibacterial wash and then applying fusidic acid ointment thrice a day. Don't buy fusidic acid D ointment. Doctors even suggest minoz100 i.e. minocyclin, antibiotic tablets. Keep infected skin dry and don't scratch the area.
Please give me the treatment of folliculitis because I visit many doctors and take many drugs like Doxycycline tablets and clindmycin tablets 150g and retan tablets for six months and no results . I suffer from folliculitis for ten years ago . please explain me what i do . thanks
Just get some pure organic tea tree oil put some in shampoo and try it. My daughter has cystic acne maybe because she waxes her face, she has been on antibiotics for 1 year did not help. Now she uses sulphur soap to wash face and then uses water based moisturiser with the added tea tree oil , acne gone. You have to also cut out crap from the diet sugar and refined carbs.
SHAHZAIB RAO best thing is to get a culture for bacteria to determine the proper prescription. If you have MRSA only certain types of prescriptions will work. There are also cases of fungal folliculitis and its best to get a proper culture for this as well unless your dermatologist can do an in-house Microscopic evaluation
Hi I have Folliculitis mostly pimples with puss I was prescribed triamcinolone I've been using this for a 3 weeks with no result as in they are still there. How can I get rid of this what is drug or medicine to combat this. Thank you
brent lewis it is a soapy cleanser so I bought a facial buff to use on my face. I'm using a hand scrubber on my hair which I cut very short, then a I bought a body scrubber that looks like a bath pouf unraveled but has a bit more scubability. I had it on my face. It spread to my shoulders, back, arms and chest. And lastly spread to my head where it caused two bald spots that grew to the size of softballs. My face is clearing up. My arms and back are cleared up. My scalp is almost healed but the spot on my nape is a little slower in recovering. I only have the purple spots from it on my face that is now beginning to fade. I have also been using a soap bar for seborrhic dermatitis which is helping with the inflammation.
dear doc i have folliculitis since last 4 years. i went to the doctors and they cultured the pus. it was due to S.aurens. they prescribed me several antibiotics, which worked actually untill i use them, now the case is repeating , i use clindamycin gel which is very effective to the cure ,but the thing keeps on repeating after stopping the use, my hair is already thin now, what should i actually do?

@@skinandhairdoc Doctor I use Doxycycline Antibiotics for months now and not working :( and the Inflammation of hair follicles I have it at the back of my head , I had hair transplant few years ago Just to let you know , and this Inflammation make me feel very uncomfortable with some dizziness sometimes , can you please maybe Recomend me better Antibiotics to try Doctor please ?
It actually occurs on my chin. Each time hair grows on my chin a small white head pus also appears on each area where the hair grows and it is actually painful. I am not drinking the antibiotic, but instead i apply it directly on the affected area and it is affective and heals fast just for few days. But my problem is after 1 or 2 months it is occuring again. Any recommendation to stop it from occuring?
Aditya singh there are more than 5 variations of folliculitis and more than half don't have anything to do with bacteria .. the other half has everything to do with inflammation .. so you could take all the pills in the world and still have it
Hello, Dr I have this condition and i tried many antibiotics they basically work for 2 months and then i change to another type. i have really simple way to control and reduce the inflammation its seems food has something to do with it for sure i tried vegan diet for a month it seems working well specially quiting food that increases inflammation and basically eat healthy i really think drinking alot of water helps too ( Note everyone isn't the same you don't have to go vegan diet) just eat at home quit sugar and sauces you will be fine

What helps though is Vitamin A 3000 IU daily as it dries up the oil production. You may need a higher dose though...can you check with your doctor and see if you could incorporate it into your daily regimen...?
@@amassingwarriors yes
hello! i have some scars and pimples due to folliculitis and I'm getting antibiotics for it! but it still remains what do i do??! and i lost some hair due to this??
Ad Siz
NoNickName go back to the dermatologists and get on an antibiotic to kill the infection. Take all of them as prescribed.
Aditya singh Aditya m not sure if this is going to stop any sooner !
You may want to look into laser hair removal
I’ve had it for years as well. Wash your hair every 3 days unless you wash it everyday due to oily hair which is fine. Before getting out of the shower, run the water over your head in Luke warm water then cool then cold each time for 15 seconds. Dry your hair with towel or air dry but try to stay away from blow drying unless you must.
This will work 100% Stick to the same routine. Sometimes I take an ice cube and rub it in the spot that hurts for a few minutes as well. Works like magic
Oh! Was it a new information that we should see a dermatologist? Then why did we watch your video and why u used the title treatment? Anyways fusidic acid or sodium phosphate ointments and antibacterial face wash used in mild quantity in order to avoid irritating the bumps is a better cure. Don't use alcoholic antiseptics or cider vinegar. Just don't forget to clean ur skin with antibacterial wash and then applying fusidic acid ointment thrice a day. Don't buy fusidic acid D ointment. Doctors even suggest minoz100 i.e. minocyclin, antibiotic tablets. Keep infected skin dry and don't scratch the area.
Please give me the treatment of folliculitis because I visit many doctors and take many drugs like Doxycycline tablets and clindmycin tablets 150g and retan tablets for six months and no results . I suffer from folliculitis for ten years ago . please explain me what i do . thanks
@@ياسرعماد-ذ4ف did you found any solution bro ? same here ?
So if you have tried antibiotic cream and a fungal cream, where do you go next doctor
Paul Christopher many doctors will prescribe an antibiotic. Make sure you have the right diagnosis by seeing a dermatologist
@@skinandhairdoc is there a cure for folliculitis? A blood clense?
My doctor prescribed me oratane, is this gonna help ?
In the scalp....okay. So if it's acknowledged that it is in the scalp, then what is the treatment?? Or is it a secret?
Just get some pure organic tea tree oil put some in shampoo and try it. My daughter has cystic acne maybe because she waxes her face, she has been on antibiotics for 1 year did not help. Now she uses sulphur soap to wash face and then uses water based moisturiser with the added tea tree oil , acne gone. You have to also cut out crap from the diet sugar and refined carbs.
Where’s the TREATMENT dude!?
Lower legs! Would laser hair removal help?
I am suffering from folliculitis of moustache last 6 years. I hve used anti biotic capsule & ointment cream. It doesn’t work.
I can help if you there I got treatmen from best doctor after weeek was gone
No NOT CUREABLE FOLLICULITIS 😭😭😭😭
@zakihassan4054 can you tell us?
plz comment prescription for reoccuring folliculitis
SHAHZAIB RAO best thing is to get a culture for bacteria to determine the proper prescription. If you have MRSA only certain types of prescriptions will work. There are also cases of fungal folliculitis and its best to get a proper culture for this as well unless your dermatologist can do an in-house Microscopic evaluation
I heard someone said that there’s no permanent cure for that I don’t know if it’s true
There are several good treatments
@@skinandhairdoc like what pls?
Hi I have Folliculitis mostly pimples with puss I was prescribed triamcinolone I've been using this for a 3 weeks with no result as in they are still there. How can I get rid of this what is drug or medicine to combat this. Thank you
Hibiclense antimicrobial cleanser is the only thing that worked for me
Missy Potter how did you use it? I just purchased a bottle. female her, w/ facial follulitis
brent lewis it is a soapy cleanser so I bought a facial buff to use on my face. I'm using a hand scrubber on my hair which I cut very short, then a I bought a body scrubber that looks like a bath pouf unraveled but has a bit more scubability. I had it on my face. It spread to my shoulders, back, arms and chest. And lastly spread to my head where it caused two bald spots that grew to the size of softballs. My face is clearing up. My arms and back are cleared up. My scalp is almost healed but the spot on my nape is a little slower in recovering. I only have the purple spots from it on my face that is now beginning to fade. I have also been using a soap bar for seborrhic dermatitis which is helping with the inflammation.
brent lewis you can even use the store brand. $15 bottle lasted me 2.5 weeks. Not too bad
white vinegar! put it on a cloth, hold on infected area for 15mins, have a shower and repeat everyday and it should disappear!
dear doc

My dermatologist injected asteroid inside the pimples.
asteroid wow!
It actually occurs on my chin. Each time hair grows on my chin a small white head pus also appears on each area where the hair grows and it is actually painful. I am not drinking the antibiotic, but instead i apply it directly on the affected area and it is affective and heals fast just for few days. But my problem is after 1 or 2 months it is occuring again. Any recommendation to stop it from occuring?
Bro.... Which of the topical antibiotics u were using???
@@jasvantprajapat7267 my doctor prescribed me clindamycin.
I shave my head and usually get it from wearing hats .It's just oil filled bumps but it hurts like a bitch to pop
Zach Cline it hurts because of infection and inflammation.
will it cure the disease completely?
pls explain more about it
where did you get that info from ?
Aditya singh there are more than 5 variations of folliculitis and more than half don't have anything to do with bacteria .. the other half has everything to do with inflammation .. so you could take all the pills in the world and still have it

Maybe one day
Hello, Dr
I have this condition and i tried many antibiotics they basically work for 2 months and then i change to another type. i have really simple way to control and reduce the inflammation its seems food has something to do with it for sure i tried vegan diet for a month it seems working well specially quiting food that increases inflammation and basically eat healthy i really think drinking alot of water helps too ( Note everyone isn't the same you don't have to go vegan diet) just eat at home quit sugar and sauces you will be fine
Anything that works is helpful
Foods may play a role
