Beard Rash Causes and What You Can Do About It

Summary: Beard rash is a common, itchy problem that can make your face red and bumpy. It happens for a few different reasons, like dry skin, ingrown hairs, or infections such as folliculitis and ringworm. Sometimes, things like harsh soaps or beard dandruff (seborrheic dermatitis) are to blame. Fortunately, you can usually fix it at home! Washing with gentle soap, using a good moisturizer, and shaving with a sharp razor in the direction your hair grows can work wonders. If your rash is really painful, crusty, or won't go away, a skin doctor can give you special creams or medicines to clear it up.
