I have been diagnosed that I have mild
form of folliculitis. That is infection
of the hair roots.
It is very annoying and it lasts for 2
years till now. Please help if anyone had
experienced it......
I have some propolis lotion, but it
doesn't seem to help much.
Please give me advice,
axel

I actually developed folliculitis on my
buttocks...I was completely weirded out
about it ( and of course, very annoyed).
The doctor checked it out and thought that
since I had recently stopped taking
antibiotics ( for surgery) I might be more
prone to developing infections. So, it's
not even a big deal...It's very common.
Anyway, you should go to your
dermatologist and they can prescribe a
cream or antibiotic, depending on your
condition. You mentioned that the cream
doesn't help much...Maybe you need a
stronger one or even an oral antibiotic.
Hope it helps...
As for me, the pimples have subsided but I
do occasionally get tiny ones again. I
will definately see a dermatologist about
it too.
