Coming soonFurunculosis is a dermatologic condition characterized by the occurrence or recurrence of furuncles, which are acute, deep, necrotizing bacterial infections centered on hair follicles and extending into the dermis and subcutaneous tissue.
It predominantly affects hair-bearing areas of the integumentary system subjected to friction, moisture, and occlusion, such as the face, neck, axillae, groins, and buttocks.
Pathophysiologically, the disease is most frequently driven by *Staphylococcus aureus* colonization and invasion, which elicits intense suppurative neutrophilic inflammation that progresses into a painful, erythematous, fluctuant nodule containing central purulent necrosis.
Persistent or recurrent disease often stems from persistent anterior nares carriage of the pathogen, defective epidermal barrier integrity, or underlying host predispositions such as diabetes mellitus.
