Boils

Introduction A bloated is a large red mass formed by a hair follicle infected with bacteria. Swollen occurs in areas where the body is stressed, such as the neck collar or hips. In the process of formation, bloating often has severe pulsating jump pain, especially if the swelling of the skin in the forehead or lower jaw is dense and the tension is high, the pain will be even worse. Usually after a day or two, the center of the red mass will form purulent sputum, and it will rupture itself after two or three days. Some bloated may not break and disappear on their own. Although edema is not a very serious disease, because the hair follicles are closely adjacent, if the edema that has already grown is not treated in time, it is not only painful, but also easy to cause infection of the surrounding skin, and it will grow more bloated. .

Cause

A swollen swell is a purulent hair follicle and an infection of the surrounding tissues of the hair follicle. The pathogenic bacteria causing bloating are mostly Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis. Other factors include: patients with immune disease, diabetes, excessive use of corticosteroids, frequent exposure to certain chemical environments, poor hygiene, poor nutrition and physical fitness. Bloating may be caused by bacterial infections, air or food allergies, life stress, lack of hygiene, illness, poor resistance, certain medications, excessive junk food, wound infections, blood poisoning, or thyroid problems.

Differential diagnosis

Rickets should be differentiated from sweat glands and phlegm.

1 sweat gland inflammation: infiltration is more limited, the surrounding inflammation is also lighter, does not form pus, only occurs in the axillary, perianal, vulva and areola and other areas of apocrine glands.

2: The affected part is infiltrated obviously, and there are many pus on the surface, forming a honeycomb shape, the pain is more severe, and the systemic symptoms are obvious.
