Common Questions and Answers about Chest acne cyst

chest

hi i am 29 now. before 4 years i got a small acne on my chest and it became big now it is like a overgrowth on skin, now it is 4cm long and 3 cm wide. doctor suggested to get operated.
Okay, well, the acne appears to be mostly under the left breast. The right has a little bit of acne and cysts.. But under my left breast.. It's COMPLETELY consumed with this problem. See, they're like a bunch of tiny pimples mixed with a bunch of black/whiteheads. There's a lot of permanent scars from cysts that have healed up after bursting on their own from years ago.. But if I squeeze one of the black/whitehead or pimple-like bumps.. The ENTIRE area breaks out in a red irritated state.
In the past I have had my cysts aspirated. Could this cyst on my daughters chest be aspirated? The Dermatologist diagnosed it as cystic acne. While she has a few pimples on her chest this is the only one that is a cyst.
Hi. Acne mainly occurs on the face, chest or back. However, it is possible for the odd pimple to occur anywhere. Never pop a pimple. This seldom improves the appearance and can spread bacteria under the skin leading to more pimples. Keep the area clean and do not be tempted to squeeze spots.
I also got acne on my forehead, neckline, scalp & upper chest the same summer I was diagnosed with HPV. I was 26 and had never had acne in my life. Furthermore it has persisted since then. If it leaves my forehead it appears on my neckline etc.. Its never in the same place at the same time. I certainly DO attribute it to the HPV infection. Dr's do not know everything about viruses. In fact the surface is barely scratched as far as what is known about HPV.

Stanb is right. This is not acne vulgaris which occurs on the face, chest and back due to the oil glands present there. Do speak to your doctor. If you are told these are harmless cysts that cannot easily be removed, don't panic-all men look different down below.
They cover my chest, breasts, and lately I've noticed them below my chest, on my sides and a few on my lower back. In the past I've had them on my elbows and one very big but deep one on my neck. All the three dermatologists and two GPs I have present these papules problem to have all said they're nothing to worry about and there isn't a solution. But to me they are hideous, embarrassing, unsightly, and most importantly a sexual turn-off.
muscular pains/dry lips/feeling a bit down. Eventualy the acne came back and it was just as bad as before, I get large boils/cysts on my chest/neck sometimes on my back but my face is not as bad as before, thank god. As a result of having acne, I have facial scaring, which is fairly bad, but i don't think i can afford laser treatment.
My facial acne was awful, large painful cysts were common, and then I went back on birth control pills. I take progesterone-only and am 31 years old. Now the painful cysts are gone, but I have rashy, itchy small pimples. At first just on my face...then in the last few weeks also bad on my neck and chest. My chest is the worst, on the area above/between the breasts it looks like I have a skin disease.
I've had acne and maybe cysts as well on my legs very bad for as long as i can remember. I am 19 now and have very bad scarring all over my legs. I have no idea what to do about it. It is hereditary but it skipped my mother and my grandmother never had it as badly as i do. I have tried taking vitamin E for it but to no avail bc i became resistant to it. Could someone please give me some advice on what to do...
It is december now and in the end of August my face began to break out bad. I was getting cysts and everything. My back and chest was also very bad. I thought it was the dairy because I was drinking protien smoothies everyday and I stopped that and it got a tad better(I thought). Anyways I went to a new dermotologist and he prescribed me some tetracycline and same benz. and i got some tretnoin cream instead of the differin this time.
It can also cause secondary infection, delayed healing time and even scarring. Acne occurs on oil-rich areas of skin such as the face, back and chest. What you describe does not sound like acne. Repost this in the Dermatology Forum. Best Wishes, Eloise.
However since you have acne, it could be a larger one. It could be an acne cyst (deep pimple) or a pustule. The pus in cysts and pustules is generally sterile and does not contain bacteria. Thus it can be there as it is for a long period of time. Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
It was on my face, chest, back, and butt! My doctor told me I could use St.Ive's Medicated acne scrub. I think it worked a little. I am awaiting either AF or a positive HPT right now. ...and guess what is on my back right now. I hope this is a sign. Oh, and I had a girl with my first!
While i've been in this relationship i've also experienced boils under my penis shaft that had hair follicles, sebaceous cyst on my scrotum and acne on my shaft (always on the top sides the ones that i pop always have a hair follicle in them or a hard pus like that of a fordyce spot). Also alot of these things have left scars on my skin. Also when these are popped they are red like acne, leave a small crater where the acne or puss was and take a few days to heal.
Fortamet has been completely successful in reducing my testosterone and insulin levels, clearing up my acne and regulating my menstrual cycles. With recent thyroid problems that have caused me to reduce my Synthroid from 75mcg to 50mcg/day -- heart palps, fullness in throat, weight loss, nervousness -- the Foramet seems to have stopped working and my chin acne is in full force again! My latest thyroid labs are as follows: TSH 2.634 (range 0.3 to 5.1) Free T4 1.04 (range 0.73 to 2.3) Free T3 1.
I've recently turned 22 and I'm still suffering from acne. I started developing acne as soon as I hit puberty around 11 years old. By the time I was 13, I was so utterly depressed that my mother finally took me to a dermatologist. Since then I've tried every prescription available. I've been given all the drugs and creams that they offer. Needless to say, I've never had any luck with any over the counter product. Since then, like most anyone who has bad acne.
My chin under my lip has been breaking out continuously and as soon as one acne blemish is clearing up another whitehead comes! I have also developed acne on my back/shoulders with some very large pimples that just wont seem to go away. I noticed a similar affect with Wellbutrin but mainly just on my back/shoulders nowhere near as bad as with Effexor. I was on accutane in my teenage years which helped clear up my acne significantly. Interistingly accutane had a side affect of depression.
Well it really is working. It does not get rid of the big cyst type acne but it is keeping his face clear of regular acne blemishes. Its important to use it everyday to keep the alkaline ph level but I really think the ACV is great.
I had bad acne all over my chest/back/neck/face when I was younger, and now I have some hard fatty deposites and deep wells in various places where the acne was (used acutane), particularly a big deposite in the center of my chest where the smell tends to permeat. Now, Idono if there is any corolation between the fatty deposites and the smell([perhaps it's leaking out as time goes on)..
My husband is frequented by problematic cysts. He gets them on his face and chest. Many times, the ones that develop on his face have to be lanced at an ER because they get so huge he cant see from the swelling. (he looks like a klingon from star trek) This has happened twice... Im concerned that its something more dangerous and wonder why it happens so often. He does have some acne and usually takes good care of his skin. And is there something other than going to the er that we can do?
I am not sure how much of these are true but since I went through a strict diet to reduce weight (30lbs) two years ago, I got rid of most of my acne problems (on face, back, chest,and arms)- What a nice surprise! - My diet now consists of mostly vegetable and fruits with little meat and starch. Here are the items that I no longer consume: fried stuff, fat, sugar, and others high calories things (i.e. donuts, cakes). I also drink 3 liter of plain water/day.
It worked to cure those cysts virtually overnight, so I kept taking it to make sure they didn't come back. Then about two weeks after I started the daily Turmeric capsules I noticed the acne on my face, chest and back had disappeared. This was over 5 months ago, and my face is clearer than it's ever been in my life.
Now I have persistant and large acne on my cheeks and jawline, including cystic acne. The acne is ever present and not just once a month. My current dermo (not the one who proscribed Accutane) tells me that it's hormonal (I believe this) and that I will just have to deal with it for the rest of my life (I don't want to accept this). She does Cortosone injections on occasion for the cysts because I cannot, for the life of me, leave my face alone.
I suffered without anything to do until I saw a doctor who gave me antibiotics until I was 13 years old, he then put me on Accutane. This got rid of my acne and the cysts. =] !! But I now suffer from abnormal hair growth. I'm not too sure if it is from the accutane or if it is something going along with the acne and bumps. It's horrible to go through this at a young age. No one knew what it was (and still dont). One doctor even thought it all started from a bump in my ear, so he cut it out.
Ok I will first tell my story and what I think could possibly cause the acne It has been 5 years ago since my acne started. Now 3 years ago I started to care about my acne and tried many things to reduce it. My first attempts were topical, things like clearaseal, ph neutral soap and moisturizers. That really didn“t change alot so I decided to seek help with the docter. He prescribed me some creams.
