It is hard to diagnose a skin based
condition without visually seeing it.
“Blocked hair follicles” are usually
combined with an infection and may look
like a pimple. The symptoms of hair
follicle infections include redness
localized pain. Genital warts are another
possible option that should also be
investigated. You can consult a
dermatologist about your condition for
follow up and a diagnosis.
