Chronic folliculitis
I am having chronic folliculitis on scalp n land beard and am taking treatment from past 5 years. If I take the tablet prescribed by doctor then I won't have any problem. But if I don't take, I will again face this problem. Can you suggest me a permanent cure for this or do I have to take this tablets for life time

Needs to check bacteria for that and if it’s staph , one can put you on long term antibiotic for eradicating the problem
