How To Treat Penile Folliculitis?

my son thinks he has folliculitis on his penis. he does research online and came to this conclusion. He has had it for a long time. He takes a shower every day, sometimes twice. He says he won t go to the doctor. Is there anything I can give him to treat it for now. Up to this point he hasn t done anything for it.

Hi,

If there is no sexual contact, one of the cause is folliculitis (since there is no picture). If folliculitis local application of mupirocin will help you.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
