Could Folliculitis Be Related To Having Asthma?
I have this small bumps on my arms, thighs and back. i was diagnosed with folliculitis. My doctor gave me creams like benzoyl peroxide and I also used AHA soap but to no avail. I have also history of asthma. I don't know if it is associated with asthma. What should I apply to remove these bumps or at least lessen it?
Thanks.

Hello
Thank You for contacting HCM.
No there is no co-relation between these two things. You can apply fusidic acid cream on the infected area thrice a day for 5 days. Keep that area clean. Do not touch with dirty hands.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow

Wishing you good health.
