There is a small red lump on the chest

It is normal for people to have small pimples on their skin, some appear one by one, some appear in patches; some people don't feel anything, but some pimples are very itchy, which is related to the pimples. Some people said that a small red lump grew on their chest and they didn’t know why or how to remove it. Skin problems are easy to be ignored. Sometimes, the bumps that do not hurt or itch may actually be hidden dangers. So if they do not go away in a short period of time, it is best to get checked to rule out the possibility of disease or lesions.

Patients should not have any doubts. The key is to understand it well and go to a regular dermatology hospital for treatment.

1. Observation and diagnosis. The severity of folliculitis is often reflected in the symptoms of the disease, and the general symptoms of folliculitis are small papules that are consistent with the hair follicles at the beginning, with obvious redness around them and hair running through the center. Millet-sized papules and small pustules are quickly formed. The pustules have thin walls and do not fuse together. After breaking, there is a small amount of purulent secretion, and later a small amount of pus is discharged, and then dries and forms a scab. Clinical treatment should first be based on an accurate diagnosis.

2. Observe the condition. Mild folliculitis that falls within the normal range does not require treatment and will usually improve on its own. Pay attention to the cleanliness of your skin and avoid irritation such as scratching.

3. Application of treatment. For mild cases, apply ointment. Patients with severe conditions can be treated with combined medication. The important thing is to find a professional specialist to treat your symptoms to ensure the effectiveness of the treatment.

Titanium dioxide ointment and para-aminobenzoic acid cream can be used externally for treatment, and the symptoms will subside after a certain period of time.

In order to prevent the disease from getting worse, pay attention to local cleanliness and hygiene and keep the environment dry. Wash the local area frequently. This is not contagious and will not affect health.

It is okay to use clindamycin metronidazole lotion.

It is recommended to use sulfur soap when bathing and apply Bactroban ointment externally for treatment. During the treatment period, pay attention to a light diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and eat less greasy foods.

Skin problems can be serious or minor. In mild cases, they may affect your appearance, while in severe cases, they may lead to cancer. If you experience symptoms of skin disease, you must be vigilant and seek prompt diagnosis and treatment to ensure your health and normal work and life.
