Folliculitis is inflammation of hair follicles that shows up as small red bumps or pus-tipped spots, often on the trunk, thighs, buttocks, or beard area, and frequently after shaving, sweating, friction, or hot-tub use. Superficial folliculitis is often a good online-photo condition. A boil (abscess) that may need draining, spreading warm redness (cellulitis), fever, or infection in a diabetic or immunocompromised person needs in-person care.

如果治疗合适，医生可以将非管制药物处方发送到您的药房，并通过门户网站向您提供说明。

Is folliculitis contagious?

Most everyday folliculitis is not spread person-to-person; it comes from irritation of the follicles by shaving, friction, or sweat. Some types can be linked to bacteria or a hot tub.

When does folliculitis need in-person care?

If there is a firm, very tender boil that may need draining, spreading warm redness, red streaks, fever, recurrent boils, or you have diabetes or a weakened immune system, it should be seen in person.

How is it treated?

Simple folliculitis often improves with an antibacterial wash and a topical antibiotic, plus skin-care changes; hot-tub folliculitis usually clears on its own.
