Suggest Treatment For Damaged Eyebrow Follicles

I have this very painful disease of eyebrow follicles. It forms acne like cysts but cysts crust over when thwy heal. If I squish them disease spreads to form painful swellings in vone at temple or jaw and poison has even left radiating scars in skin an inch aboce the brows. One doctoe told mw it was just Seborrhea and to wash wirh Selson Blue but that didnt help at all. In fact the only thing that helps is washing with toothpaste so I think tbe fluoride is doinf a number on it. It will go away if you dont touch but the condition is so painful you feel compelled to mash it.

i think yours is the case of folliculitis which is inflammation of the hair follicles. You will have to take oral as well as topical antibiotics for it and continue them for a longer duration of time.
