I had a red bump on my grown, the NP I saw thinks it's folliculitis but did not perscribe anything to treat it. I've had it for 5 days now and it does not appear to be much better, the pustule opened up yesterday but the skin underneath it still irritated and red. I'm worried about it, treating it at home with white vinegar hot compress and apply iodine.
How long should this take to clear up?
I had a smaller one in the same place a month ago but it cleared up in a couple days, could I have a deeper infection?
