Prevalence of Folliculitis

Folliculitis is a common skin infection that affects many people at some point in their lives. Men, women, children, and babies are all susceptible. Certain varieties of folliculitis are more common in some populations. For example, pseudofolliculitis barbae and sycosis barbae are two kinds of folliculitis related to shaving. These problems are far more likely in men who trim their beards frequently.
