A doctor has provided 1 answer

Stop shaving: Pseudofolliculitis barbae is a common disorder that occurs in the beard area. The distal ends of regrowing hairs penetrates the interfollicular skin and elicit an inflammatory reaction. Males with dark curly hair are affected. Stop shaving beard After a few months the beard area may improve. Avoid plucking or popping the pimples. Topical Retinoids, corticosteroids and topical antimicrobials help.
