What anti-inflammatory drugs to take for skin folliculitis

Folliculitis is a common clinical condition caused by bacterial infections in the hair follicle area, and is commonly caused by Staphylococcus aureus. If it occurs on the face or back where there is a lot of seborrhea, it may also be caused by Propionibacterium acnes. Folliculitis can be well controlled by topical medications, such as topical fusidic acid cream, compound polymyxin B cream, and clindamycin cream. If the inflammation is heavy and the rash is more generalized, you can also choose to take oral medication. For folliculitis starting from the head, face, chest and back, the clinical choice is mostly minocycline or doxycycline, which has a very good effect of killing bacteria. If the skin infection is caused by Staphylococcus aureus, you can also choose to take oral antibiotics such as amoxicillin or cephalosporin.
