A member asked:
I want to know how can i apply to remove my buttocks folliculitis. 10% benzoyl peroxide?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Benzoyl peroxide can: help. Often the folliculitis is caused by prolongued sitting especially if combined with sweating. I also recommend using corn starch to absorb moisture. If OTC BP isn't enough or the 10% concentration is to irritating see your doctor
