Folliculitis is a disease that everyone may have experienced. It is a disease that is relatively common in the human body. When suffering from this disease, it will have many adverse effects on the human body, such as redness, swelling, itching or pain in the affected area.

So the following will introduce whether folliculitis will get better on its own.

Folliculitis can heal on its own. Folliculitis is an acute, subacute or chronic suppurative or non-suppurative inflammation occurring in the hair follicles, and can be divided into superficial and deep folliculitis. During systemic treatment, pay attention to personal and environmental hygiene, keep the skin clean, and avoid drinking alcohol and eating spicy or irritating foods. Actively treat the primary disease such as diabetes, and for those with multiple diseases, antibiotics and vitamins can be used.

Treatment measures:

1. Seek medical treatment actively

The symptoms of folliculitis lumps are very similar to those of some skin diseases. Judging the disease based on symptoms alone will often lead to misdiagnosis and incorrect treatment. It is recommended that you do not blindly seek treatment if you have symptoms of folliculitis. You should seek medical treatment as soon as possible, get a clear diagnosis, and then receive relevant treatment under the guidance of a doctor. Only in this way can the disease be effectively controlled and treated.

2. Pay attention to the hygiene of the affected area

The occurrence of folliculitis is closely related to poor skin hygiene. It is recommended that patients with folliculitis must pay attention to the cleanliness of their skin. It is best to wipe the affected area every day. If necessary, use some disinfectants to wipe the affected area to avoid bacterial infection. It should be noted that it is best not to use chemical drugs that irritate the skin on the affected area, so as not to aggravate the condition.

3. Use of antibiotics

If the folliculitis lump is very large, you can use antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor. Do not be blind and do not take the medicine without authorization to avoid causing some side effects. The treatment of this disease is not a matter of one or two days. You need to persist in the treatment so that the disease can be effectively cured.

4. Pay attention to diet and develop good living habits

Generally, the early symptoms of folliculitis are not obvious and have little impact on patients. If not treated in time, it will cause folliculitis lumps, which will bring certain difficulties to the treatment of the disease. It is recommended that you must treat the disease as soon as possible, pay attention to diet, avoid spicy and greasy foods, and eat a light diet.
