Hello, Bathe or shower daily with a mild antibacterial soap. Also, bathe or shower after you exercise and after you work around chemicals.
Avoid sharing towels, washcloths, or other personal items. If you have folliculitis, use a clean washcloth and towel each time you bathe.
Don't scratch the bumps.
Avoid shaving the bumps. If you must shave, change the razor blade each time. Try using depilatory creams and lotions, which remove hair without shaving. (These products are not recommended for use more often than once or twice a week.)

After you use public hot tubs or spas, shower right away with antibacterial soap. If you own your own hot tub, follow the manufacturer's instructions for keeping it clean. Regards.
