Have Bluish Areas Under Hair Follicles. Secretes Ink Colored Liquid On Squeezing. No Pain. Cause?
Hi, I noticed awhile back now that I had bluish colored areas under my hair follicles on the outside of my areolas on both pecs. The areas looked like a reservoir of fluid. When lightly squeezed a dark, ink colored liquid is secreted. There is not pain or swelling and these "reservoirs" are patterned haphazardly around the outside of my areolas on both sides. What is this liquid and is there any cause for concern?

Hello,
Thanks for the query.
Ink colored fluid or colored fluid has been mentioned only in relation to pseudomonas infection.
so probably you have pseudomonal folliculitis.
A treatment with anti pseudomonal drugs.
Please meet a dermatologist for prescription.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
