Kidney Transplant & Folliculitis

Definition of Folliculitis is:

Folliculitis is a common skin condition that happens when hair follicles become inflamed. It's often caused by an infection with bacteria.

My research indicates that this condition is fairly common to transplant precipitants.

Does anyone have any experience with this issue? Can you offer any solutions/relief? It is not extremely painful but annoying.

Does anyone have a solution?

Thanks in advance for tips and/or advice.
