1670004 tn?1333864841 is it a cream?? If so i used a cream through my 1st trimester when my acne was bad.
Avatar n tn What products can I buy to treat my sons acne and would he just need a cream or cleanser as well. He was prescribed Erythromycin by his GP but this hasnt helped.
Avatar n tn I have been having this random cluster of red acne like spots on the upper middle of my back. I'm not sure if it's acne or a rash from my laundry detergent? I've been using benzoyl peroxide acne cream but it's still there. It used to be raised a little like acne but now its all flat.
Avatar f tn Im not a doctor, however i have taken Differin and i would advise taking it constantly until the prescription runs out. Once it runs out, assess your skin- do you really need to keep taking it?? If this answer is a yes, refill the prescription and keep taking the Differin(In relation to taking it "permanently", i recommend doing this self- assessment everytime you fill the prescription, no matter how long you have been using it).
492921 tn?1321289896 I have recently had a severe acne breakout. I usually use retinol cream and benzol peroxide spot treatment. These products can not be used durin pregnancy! It was a suprise to me. Every over the counter acne product has benzol peroxide in it. I just thought I would share this info with you ladies. I used the benzol peroxide for 4 days before I found out it isn't safe. I know that acne is a pretty common occurance in pregnancy and there is nothing over the counter that you can use.
Avatar n tn I MAKE SURE to take really good care of my skin but it dosent seem to work.

Can someone tell me what has helped them get rid of annoying and stubborn pimmples? Pleasee helpppp.. thanks!
Avatar f tn isotretinoin also known as Accutane, can be prescribed by a doctor, or contraceptive pills with cyproterone for females with virilization or drospirenone. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acne_vulgaris#Treatments Let us know about how you are doing and what your doctor advises. Post us if you need any further information. Regards.
Avatar n tn I appreciate the antibiotics, but they haven't done much for me either. But have you tried low percentage retin-a cream? This may be a solution for you. Applied at night, the thin layer of cream can do wonders in a matter of weeks, and over several months, there's a big improvement. I've used it as an acne treatment, and my 50+ age mother uses it for acne, wrinkles, and overall skin appearance. She looks fabulous for her age!
Avatar n tn I have discovered that for an intense itch, caused by mosquito, flea, fire ant or chigger bites, ACNE CREAM (10% BENZOYL PEROXIDE) is amazing - it immediately releaves the itch, the swelling, the burning from all sorts of bites. Question - is it harmful to use this for this purpose?
689528 tn?1364135841 It looks like baby acne in a way but it feels rough to the touch. I thought baby acne was more oily??!? Or am I wrong? I'm going to get unscented laundry detergent today and re-wash all of her clothing and blankets. I have also just started cutting dairy out of my diet in case it's a reaction to that too. The only thing I have done is put breastmilk on it which is taking the red away. It's like it's making it better on her cheeks but it just keeps spreading other places.
Avatar f tn It is a chronic skin condition that is treated by applying Metro cream (metronidazole cream) once a day. It is a prescription cream. The condition is often misdiagnosed. Symptoms very from person to person. Your symptoms are almost verbatim of the condition. Here is a link to a website, you can decide for yourself. http://en.wikipedia.
Avatar f tn I wanted to ask about etinol again, because I am very interested to know whether anyone has used a good strength OTC retinol product like Vichy, Boots or Green Cream (or prescription treitonin, Retin-A). Have you seen good results, specifically whether it may have helped with smoking wrinkles and sun damage. I know that you cannot get rid of wrinkles from smoking. However, does retinol help to fade somewhat or make them less noticeable?
Avatar f tn I am aware that dapsone gel is effective,though my experience in this is a trifle limited.Do consult and verify.
Avatar f tn I am a twenty year old female and believe that I have symptoms of perioral dermatitis. For the past month I have been experiencing a rash on my face around the corners of my nose (which recently has spread to my chin and is starting to spread to the bottom of my right eye). At first the rash appeared after I was sick and had had a runny nose which I had been continuously using tissue on.
Avatar n tn I was super itchy last time around. So I asked a friend of mine who had 8 children. She said have an oatmeal bath. I thought that sounded nasty so I put it off for a week before I figured anything is worth a try. Totally worked!
Avatar m tn t surprise me that steriods helped clear up some of the acne, but returned when the prescription ran out. Also, your body will build up a tolerance to steriods if you use them too much. Rather than treating the symptoms, treat the cause. Have you had blood work done recently to make sure all your levels are okay? This may pinpoint what nutritional values you are lacking in your diet.
Avatar m tn I am a male and in my teens and have Perioral dermatitis which I have read is uncommon, I know exactly how I got the skin condition from to much use of a Steroidal topical cream, I am now going through my second flare up - my last flare was about 2 years ago around this time, I think the flare up was caused by chlorinated water, which I read is not good for this condition I have been struggling to keep this condition under control and my treatment from my last time does not seem to be working, w
Avatar n tn Apply OTC benzoyl peroxide to the face to reduce the oiliness. Apply an antibiotic cream such as erythromycin (erytop) and vitamin A based cream on pimples. Avoid eating oily stuff and Drink 3-4 liters of water a day. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
606349 tn?1220227881 You could ask your doctor about Accutane too, or get a prescription for a retinoid. (That is if it is acne, which it looks like to me, but it is odd that it's only on that part of your face, so you should probably see a doctor.
Avatar n tn thank you so much for responding. i was given this monocyline Hcl 100mg with cream which has this oleanolic acid formula.is this cream for acne scars or acne?or for both?i have been using both tablet and cream for 20 days.i didn't see much of the change in fadeness of scars or maybe it takes time.please let me know what is this cream exactly for.
Avatar f tn I believe abrasion on my skin causes acne breakouts. Ever since using back scrubbers, acne appeared and left acne scars after disappearing. I totally lost my confidence in dressing up for summer and I cant go shirtless, I'm forced to wear a shirt when I go swimming and its bothersome. My self-esteem has hit rock bottom ever since these deep scars appeared. I never knew skin could do that.
Avatar n tn Try benzyl peroxide cream for acne, you might need a prescription.
Avatar m tn That's just great.. I went to the pharmacy today to buy the Dermacort and they won't give me without a prescription. Would zinc cream help any bit?
Dog Can you buy vaginal estriol cream without a prescription? If so do you sell it ?
