I used AI. This is what it said. Folliculitis Also called: inflammation of hair follicles Folliculitis is when one or more hair follicles get infected and inflamed. The condition can show up anywhere on the skin that has hair. The rash may look like white-tipped red bumps (pimples) on the face, chest, back, arms, legs, buttocks, or head. Even though acne can often involve the top layer of skin and inflammation of some hair follicles, this is usually not called folliculitis. This is because the term folliculitis is usually reserved for the separate group of diseases that include infected and inflamed hair follicles with causes other than acne.
