medical illustration of Folliculitis starts when hair follicles are damaged by friction from clothing, an insect bite,[1] blockage of the follicle, shaving, or braids too tight and too close to the scalp. In most cases of folliculitis, the damaged follicles are then infected with the bacterium Staphylococcus.
Next medical illustration of Deep Vein Thrombosis is the formation of a blood clot (thrombus) in a deep vein,[a] predominantly in the legs. Pulmonary embolism, a potentially life-threatening complication, is caused by the detachment (embolization) of a clot that travels to the lungs.
