I've been dealing with scalp folliculitis for a while now. My dermatologist said it's from a bacterial infection that can spread from the nose to the scalp. These bumps are oval and white. When I'm on medication and use cream, the folliculitis goes away after about a week. But as soon as I stop taking them, the bumps come back all over my scalp. Is there anything I can do to manage this without relying on medication all the time? I'm worried about becoming dependent on it. Any alternative remedies or methods I could try?

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.

I've been struggling with really bad body odor, and I'm feeling pretty self-conscious about it. It's like whenever I sweat, the smell becomes overwhelming, and even when I'm not sweating, my natural body smell just isn't pleasant. I'm starting to worry and wonder if there's anything I can do to improve this situation. Any advice would be highly appreciated.
