Detailed Answer:
Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I will take care all of your medical concerns.

Don't use that product again. Wash your face with Eucerin redness relief soothing cleanser Only.

Take claritin for itching and apply triple antibiotic ointment on the pus areas. If you feel that there is severe infection, you may consult your physician for taking a prescription for Clindamycin to control infection (folliculitis).


Have a wonderful time ahead. Hope I answered all of your questions. Let me know if you have any further clinical concerns. I will be happy to get back to you shortly. If satisfied here, please give a five star rating and don't forget to close the discussion.

Regards!
