I have been to 4 different doctors for these terrible infections on my face. I've been diagnosed with folliculitis, impetigo, staph infection, and acne...and I have been given antibiotics for all of these on and off for the past three years.
I have tried to explain this unusual substance that seems to be living under my skin, mostly by my ears, only recently my whole entire face is involved. Where there is no infection that I can see or feel, any sort of pressure, especially while washing, will bring a white, fluffy, cotton-like substance to the surface. Sometimes, it looks like white foam, other times, it's more like fuzz and I start getting a tickle in my throat, which causes me to cough...strange, I know.
What has caused me to have to go to the doctor over and over, are the awful and ugly sores that continue to occur anywhere I get a small scratch or a pimple... or they just appear out of nowhere. They are painfully swollen, bloody, and filled with something like wet cotton.
