Hello. 20 yr old male. Onset of hives and pimply eruptions after getting hair cut and wash several days ago. They started on neck but now randomly appear all over. Today ad one almost close my eye. Suggestions? Take no meds or drug use. Haven't been sick. Did have wisdom teeth come in with no problems last month. Any advice?

Hi, hair cut can at times cause bacterial infection of the hair follicles called folliculitis.It may spread from the neck to beard area and also to other part of the body.Topical antibiotic cream can help.Thankyou
