Hair folliculitis is a purulent inflammation that occurs as a result of bacterial infection of the entire hair follicle. It can be treated with topical antibiotic ointment, oral antifungal or antibiotic medication, etc. If it has progressed to boils or carbuncles, surgical treatment can be considered. 1. In mild cases, the folliculitis can be treated by keeping the scalp clean and waiting for the folliculitis to subside on its own. 2. If the scalp folliculitis is a serious bacterial infection, take antibiotics (e.g., cefuroxime, doxycycline) and use antibiotic ointment (e.g., fusidic acid) under the guidance of a physician; if it is a serious fungal infection of the scalp folliculitis, take antifungal medication (e.g., itraconazole) and use antifungal shampoo (e.g., ketoconazole shampoo) as instructed by a physician. 3. If the condition develops into boils or carbuncles, the pus can be drained out through surgical treatment. If you are suffering from folliculitis, it is recommended that you go to the hospital in a timely manner to seek medical attention, standardize the treatment under the guidance of your doctor, and take the above medications as prescribed by your doctor.
