I foruncoli all'interno delle cosce sono causati da un'infiammazione dei follicoli piliferi sotto la pelle. Ciò è dovuto all'infezione causata dal batterio Staphylococcus aureus . Qualsiasi area della pelle danneggiata (a causa di raschiatura, rasatura o graffio) è suscettibile alla formazione di bolle, specialmente nelle aree sensibili dell'interno coscia. Le bolle sono chiamate foruncoli e possono essere pruriginose e rilasciare pus.

In questo articolo discuteremo le cause dei foruncoli all'interno della coscia, alcuni rimedi naturali per gestire i sintomi e semplici modi per prevenirli.

Quali sono le cause bolle sull'interno coscia?

Gli esseri umani generalmente portano il batterio Staphylococcus aureus sulla superficie della pelle. Quando c'è un taglio o un graffio sulla pelle, questi batteri hanno accesso ai follicoli piliferi. Si stabiliscono e iniziano a moltiplicarsi nei follicoli piliferi, causando infezioni. Questo dà origine a foruncoli in aree come l'interno della coscia. A volte, il sistema immunitario indebolito e condizioni come il diabete rendono le persone suscettibili allo sviluppo di foruncoli (1).

Discuteremo ora alcuni semplici rimedi naturali che possono aiutarti a gestire i foruncoli all'interno delle cosce.
