Suggest Treatment For Pus Filled Bumps In Pubic Area

Hello, my name is Ryan, I am 22. I ve had a problem for over 2 years now. It started out as a few pus filled bumps on my pubic area, but now there is always atleast 3 or more on my pubic area, some on my inner thighs, and I have weird flesh colored bumps on my stomach that aren t filled with pus, or atleast can not be popped. I pop the ones I can when they come up. Sometimes I use hydrogen peroxide, neosporin, and a bandaid but sometimes they pop on there own or at inconvenient times where the proper things are unaccessible. Id prefer not to go see a doctor just because if it is something bad I can t have my parents knowing I have it.

Hi,

I have gone through your query and you seem to be having recurrent folliculitis. I would recommend you to get your fasting blood sugar and complete blood count done.

Meanwhile, you can start with capsule doxycycline 100 mg once daily for 3-4 weeks and apply a topical antibiotic. This will stop the recurrence.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, Dermatologist
