Prevention Tips
Although it is not always possible to prevent folliculitis, these measures may help:
-
Avoid constrictive clothing. Tight clothes especially jeans and athletic wear.
-
Shave with care. Use an electric razor or a new blade every time you shave. Be especially careful to keep the shaved area clean and to avoid cuts and nicks.
-
Clean your hot tubs or swimming pools regularly and add chlorine when recommended. Use commercial tubs only if you are sure they are well maintained.
- Avoid contaminated clothing and wash cloths.
