Hi,
It seems that you may be having follicultis. It is a bacterial infection caused by staphylococci. It may be relapsing. There may be small erythematous papule followed by pustule, then ruptures and spurt of pus oozes out. The immunogical status would be poor. You shoul undergo for blood tests to rule out DM,HIV and other immunocompromised conditions. Oral antibiotics like cefixime may be taken for short period. Anti inflammatory drugs may taken. And if any disease is found,treatment may be taken. Sitz bath in dettol water is needed to improve hygiene. Immunoboosters may improve immunity. Avoid stress and worries. Have healthy food. I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
