I am suffering from really sore inflamed spots at base of hairline and ears . what can i use to reduce the soreness and redness of these?

Folliculitis: probable folliculitis. an inflammation of the base of the hair follicle: I suggest 1% topical hydrocortisone cream to the affected areas- a light film applied topically AM/PM for 5-7 days and avoid any new shampoo or conditioner for 3 days.
