Hi XXXXXXX

Thanks for the details.

Ive gone through your photo.

It appears to be folliculitis.

It is a bacterial infection of hair follicle caused by bacteria called staphylococcus aureus.

Treatment consists of oral and topical antibiotics.And oral analgesic anti inflammatory drugs like ibuprofen.

please apply Fudic cream over the affected area.

Also if you are getting these lesions repeatedly then a blood work up is needed.

Total blood count and blood sugar levels would be advisable.

Hope ive cleared your query.

If you need any further clarification do let me know.

regards.
