Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to folliculitis. I suggest using an antibacterial soap to clean the area. I also suggest using an antibiotic cream for local application such as Neosporin cream. You can use Tylenol for the pain.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
