AB  - A  42-year-old  woman  is  seen  for  multiple  papules  and  pustules  on  her  back  (Figure  117-1).  Further  questioning  demonstrates  that  she  was  in  a  friend's  hot  tub  twice  over  the  previous  weekend.  The  outbreak  on  her  back  started  after  she  went  into  the  hot  tub  the  second  time.  This  is  a  case  of  Pseudomonas  folliculitis  or  “hot  tub”  folliculitis.  The  patient  avoided  this  hot  tub  and  the  folliculitis  disappeared  spontaneously.  Another  option  is  to  treat  with  an  oral  fluoroquinolone  that  covers  Pseudomonas.
