Accepted Answer

I understand your frustration. While it can be tough to see spots reappear after stopping treatments, using sunscreen and a good moisturizer is essential for long-term skin health and preventing further darkening. With consistent care, it may take a few weeks to months to see noticeable improvement, but sticking to your doctor's advice will help in the long run. Patience is key in skin healing.

Accepted Answer

Sounds like you are experiencing recurrent scalp folliculitis despite completing a course of medication. In cases of persistent or recurrent folliculitis, your dermatologist may consider prescribing oral antibiotics such as Doxycycline along with a topical antibiotic cream like Mupirocin 2%. It is important to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed by your doctor to fully eradicate the bacterial infection. Wash your hair regularly with a gentle shampoo to keep the scalp clean. Avoid using oily hair products or hair styling products that can clog the hair follicles. Use a clean towel and avoid sharing combs or hair accessories to prevent the spread of bacteria. Avoid picking or scratching the bumps to prevent further irritation and infection. If the folliculitis continues to recur despite these measures, it is important to follow up with your dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
