Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It is inflammatory folliculitis. Aseptic measure has not been taken. Clean it by sterile swab and apply betadine lotion. If required, you need to take systemic antibiotic like erythromycin.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ashok Kumar Dash
