[|Human|] My son had a stiff yellowish colored follicle of some sort sticking out on his scalp. I thought it was an infected hair. We were finally able to pull it out when he was sleeping and it almost looks like a splinter, but is yellowish and stiff. Do you know what it is?
[|AI|]  Hello dear, Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. Folliculitis is purulent disease of the skin, which related to Strep to- and Staphylodermia. It is usually mixed infection, can cause by our normal flora(Streptococcus epidermis, Staphylococcus aureus, STR.virions etc), usually occur in summer season due sweating and heat wave. When you pulled it out pus has gone outside. You can apply 1% Chloramphenicol to affected area 3 times a day for 5 days.  Kind regards Chat Doctor.
