Regular Member George12 Posted January 21, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted January 21, 2020 It’s now been two months since my hair transplant, a few days ago I noticed 2 bumps forming on one side of my scalp and even though from the naked eye they are barely visible, but they feel like a raised bone, could be a little painful if I press hard, one of them ended up popping after I squeezed it and there was white stuff that comes out of pimple coming out, and then some bleeding and now there is a crust. Will these bumps which sound like folliculitis effect my results. Is my sweating from the gym causing these reactions, or are they quite normal. What can I do to prevent them and treat them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member gillenator Posted January 21, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted January 21, 2020 George....IMHO, this is an infection called Follicularitis...and I highly recommend that you contact your surgeon immediately so they can start treating this a.s.a.p. 1 Gillenator Independent Patient Advocate I am not a physician and not employed by any doctor/clinic.

Regular Member George12 Posted January 21, 2020 Author Regular Member Share Posted January 21, 2020 Thanks buddy. I did msg my surgeon who does happen to be in turkey and me living in the states, and they advised me to start taking some antibiotics for a week. But is this a major concern will this effect my results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member gillenator Posted January 21, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) In my honest opinion Yes, considering when you had the procedure along with the current pics, this is a serious situation that has to be addressed now. What were the name of the antibiotics they said you were to start using?

I will be visiting a dermatologist in my city this week to see what they say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member gillenator Posted January 24, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted January 24, 2020 Ok George...well at least your surgeon is aware of the problem and has pics of the situation. Good luck with the dermatologist and keep us in the loop...😉 Gillenator Independent Patient Advocate I am not a physician and not employed by any doctor/clinic.
