Pimples After Hair Transplant Surgery, Infection?

If sporadic pimples, one or two at a time, appear after a transplant, is it possibly folliculitis of the infection sort? Are infections always in groups or quantity? I am afraid of the pus being fungal and being contagious to myself or others, but there is never enough pimples present long enough to get one tested. Maybe two at a time that are gone with a couple days. They may pop as I sleep, and I worry that the pillows and my blanket will get contaminated.  Also, my folliculitis is never accompanied by any pain or itchiness. Could infection ever be ruled out based on symptoms without a test?  What do you think?

Most of the time, the pimples that pop up after a hair transplant occurs in the first 3 months or so. They usually are retained hair follicles which the body reacts to and tries to “exteriorize,” so they eventually get pushed out. This appears to be what you are discussing, but see your doctor if you are concerned.
