On my lower right cheek and chin areas I have bumps and they itch. From time to time it seems as if I get pimples as well in the area, but the pimples never fully clear up and a new bump/pimple appears close in proximity to the old one. Its been happening for about two weeks. I really need help to get rid of this!
As per your case history you are having folliculitis, my treatment advice is: 1. Don't squeeze the lesions as it may worsen the condition. 2. Apply a mild antibiotic cream like fusiderm cream twice daily on it. 3. Take a NSAID like ibuprofen for 5-7 days. 4. Other treatment options are oral antibiotics like levofloxacin, cefadroxil and azithromycin taken only after consulting a dermatologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Harshit Bhachech
