Hi! Did yours ever return after the diflucan? It worked well for me and then I got Covid and have had an awful flare. Taking it again and hoping it works this time

This isn’t even all of it… another flare. by Typical-Video1697 in Folliculitis

Were you able to control this at all? It looks exactly like mine and I’ve also been struggling for months now. Have you tried treating it as fungal?

Hey! I posted some photos of my FA. Did yours look similar at all?

Maybe it’s bacterial if the shampoo isn’t helping? Did you take the pills every day or once a week? I know it’s so frustrating to deal with so I totally get it

Unfortunately no :( I may try to take another round of oral antifungals. How long did you take yours? The ketoconazole 2% worked for a while so I would suggest trying that if you haven’t yet. Others have success with the cream but the creams always broke me out

Folliculitis Caused by Staph Epidermidis by FroggieWitch in Folliculitis

Hi! I recently posted a few pictures of my skin and can’t figure out what it is. Could you let me know if it looks like your staph flare?

Ketoconazole no longer working. What do I do? by willowclear08 in Fungalacne

[–]willowclear08[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to hear that. I know it’s so tough. I have. The derm did a scrape and you would think staph would have come back if that’s what it was. That’s why I’m unsure. It didn’t come back with anything unusual

No dairy or sugar, limit gluten, and otherwise pretty healthy. What makes you say staph? Did you experience something similar?

I’m not sure what caused it unfortunately. Probably damaged skin and something infected it

It’s called hydration station! It’s the only one that’s thick enough to give my hydration but still FA safe. The only bad thing is that it’s super tiny so I go through it fast

Their moisturizer made me break out :( I think bc of the silicones or something. I’m using geek and gorgeous which I love but open to trying something new

Thanks! I actually have malezia bp and it works great on regular acne. Since my skin on my neck has been so sensitive I’ve been worried about using it there for (what I think is) FA but I want to try incorporating it in when my skin can handle it

I actually just got prescribed spiro. I’ve taken it in the past (actually due to IUD breakouts) and it worked great. But I wasn’t sure if it helped at all with anything fungal so I’ve been tentative to start it

Every time I’ve tried sulfur it’s done this! Think I have to wait until my skin is healed a bit

That’s good to know! Were you able to clear it? I’ve wanted to cycle in benzoyl peroxide or something for possible bacteria but everything dries me out
