Folliculitis
Hi, my name is Dhina. I'd like to ask about my condition. Lately, there are some bumps around my 'lower' hair skin, something like acnes, showing up in my upper hair skin near my V. It's not just one, there are 2 or 3 at least. When it showed up in the first time, it hurts a bit, especially when it's touched or pressed, but most of the time, not really. Sometimes it's itchy, but still, most of the time i feel nothing. But the bump isn't going away, it stays there for a couple of weeks now, and i'm starting to worry. I've been doing some readings, and i think my condition is called Folliculitis, just wanted to make sure, is it true? If it is, is it harmful or i could just take recommended antibiotics based on a doctor's consultancy? And If it is not folliculitis, what is it? And what should i do? Need your reply to calm me down asap:( Thank u!
