A member asked:
I have had pus-filled bumps on my bikini area for about 3 weeks. my dr. said it is folliculitis but it has not gone away. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be: Folliculitis is common in the groin/bikini area, especially with shaving. At times, antibiotics may be needed to help resolve the issue. If they continue, seek medical help again, and tell the dr. They are not gone. Best wishes.
