    small, raised bumps around hair follicles

    Follicular papules are small, raised bumps on the skin that form around hair follicles. They can result from various conditions, such as keratosis pilaris or folliculitis, and are often caused by inflammation or blockage of the hair follicles. These papules are typically harmless but can sometimes be itchy or cosmetically concerning.
