About "non-spurious" acne

In some cases, a hair follicle is used for a rash - light dense spots. But these are quite natural objects for the subsequent growth of the hair, so you should not worry and study them carefully.

Inflamed glands produce abscesses, the color of which can range from light pink to red.

To treat these ulcers, fairly simple methods are used. First, the skin is thoroughly washed with soap and, once it dries, one of the following procedures is performed.

Bartholin gland cyst

Pathology occurs if the excretory duct does not function normally. In this case, the Bartholin gland fluid, unable to be eliminated naturally, accumulates under the skin and hardens. The tubercles that appear in this case can cause discomfort if the gland is infected or the cyst is inflamed. Chlamydia, E. coli, gonococci and staphylococci can lead to the development of the disease.

Pubic pediculosis

As a rule, pubic lice "live" on hairs growing in the groin area, but sometimes extend to the eyebrows and eyelashes. Pediculosis is often transmitted sexually, but you can get infected without it.
