[|Human|] Hi, I initially noticed bumps/ sores on my head, but very few. Shortly afterwards I was getting red bumps on my neck and face with a white center and progressed on my chest, shoulders and back. My Dermatologist said it was mild foliculitus, Granted it may be but after 2 visits and 2 months later I still have symptoms and this tube of cream just doesn t knock it out. My scalp still itched and it looks like it could be thinning. I bought dandruff shampoo but it only does so much. I m wore out from applying antiseptics and antibacterial creams . Should he have suggested antibiotics
[|AI|]  Hello dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. I have read your query and understood your concern. If you have been diagnosed as having folliculitis spread over body, I usually advise my patients to take oral antibiotics like accolades/ cephalosporins to control the acute episode. Alongwith topical antibiotic like mupirocin 2 % cream is advised. I will advise you to get your blood sugar levels tested. As per details, this is my best advise for you. You may discuss this with your doctor. I am sure he/she will agree with my opinion. Stay healthy.
