Folliculitis

Asked for Female, 33 Years

I am having folliculitis on my thighs which is very painful. It is filled with pus and looks like a red bump. I am doing hot water compress to soften the skin around the area to clear the pus. Please suggest any other remedy for fast relief as I am unable to walk or sit.

You will need oral antibiotic course and might need to drain the pus if there is collection. So better visit a skin specialist nearby earliest.
