Mild cases of folliculitis can heal on their own, but if the condition is more severe, it needs to be treated with antibiotic drugs. Folliculitis is an inflammatory skin disease mainly involving hair follicles, often secondary to bacterial infections such as Staphylococcus aureus, showing red papules centered on hair follicles, accompanied by itching and pain. Folliculitis is self-limiting, and for patients with mild folliculitis, it can get better without treatment. However, for patients with more severe conditions, they should cooperate with the doctor for active treatment. It can be treated with antibiotic drugs such as mupirocin ointment and compound polymyxin B ointment. Recurrent, generalized lesions require the systematic use of antibiotic drugs. For patients with folliculitis, it is important to avoid scratching and keep the area clean. Specific medication should follow the doctor’s instructions.
