Avatar n tn It is not like acne in all over the body parts. It is like red rashes and sometimes in acne coming in abdomen area only.But most of the body area is covered by this red rashes. It is from my 17nth age onwards. I consult too many dermatologists. But, it was not a cure for this. What is the cause of this and how can i get cure from this.
Avatar f tn A year or so ago she was getting a lot of pimples. We purchased a regular acne care cleanser and she began using it once a day. It made her skin very dry and flaky, so we switched to a "sensitive skin" acne cleanser. We assumed that the BP in most acne cleansers was just drying her sking too much. She began using the sensitive skin acne cleanser twice a day. She does NOT use a moisturizer. Her skin has begun to dry out again, particularly in the forehead and cheek areas.
Avatar n tn Is it normal to have breakouts every day? I'm 31 weeks today and I have had acne all over my chest, shoulders arms and lower jaw. Also is there a safe way to treat while pregnant? I'm so aggravated with the itchy skin and scarring left from the old bumps. It's not cute at all.
Avatar m tn Hi... I am 16, and I have been suffering depression, it may have been bipolar depression for a couple years now. It really just started off as being moderately harassed ( mainly verbally ), for nonstop 2 years about the way my voice sounded, ( I had my tonsils removed which seemed to help ), my appearance, and how "retarded" I was. I soon became depressed from all of that and then started to question myself at around age 14-15.
Avatar m tn Hi, I am 22 years old and have had recurring acne since my early teenage years. Last year I started to develop small scars, specially below the sides of my mouth, that are not were I've had bumps or blackheads, they simply appear on my skin and have been, though slowly, constantly spreading. These scars are somewhat circular, not very deep but visible, and about one tenth of an inch or slightly smaller. I have no idea how to stop them from appearing or to how to treat them.
Avatar f tn i'm 18 weeks pregnant and i'd say for the past month month and a half i've had acne like a teenage girl going through puberty all over again. i never had problems with this when i was younger, why now? and any suggestions on how to help it?
Avatar f tn Hi. Acne is no longer just a teenage problem. Here in the Uk the average age for acne has now risen above 30 for the first time. Avoid using heavy moisturisers as this can add to the problem. The best over the counter remedy for spots is, in my experience, Freederm. However, prescription medications are often much more beneficial. Talk to your doctor to see if oral or topical antibiotics could help you, and also ask about hormonal solutions.
Avatar f tn Always check with your doctor if you have any issues. I can't say it any better. But I wouldn't worry about being in the car or opening the blinds. I personally, and this is just me, if I really loved the sun, would find a different way to deal with my acne assuming you haven't exhausted all other avenues of doing that. When I was young, doctors used to give us tetracycline for acne, which also caused sun sensitivity. Of course, they never told us that.
Avatar m tn mine was way off the charts when they took my blood. she may just be living the normal teenage depression (depending on how old she is and what it is that she is going through). other than that, if you are worried about her, see if you cant get her seen by a councelor. they may suggest her on seein a psych or somethin. idk, its worth a try i guess.
Avatar f tn SORRY NOT A TEEN, MID-FORTIES AND FEEL THE SAME, WISH A TEENAGE GIRL DIDN'T HAVE TO FEEL THE WAY I DO, NOT FAIR. SORRY, HOPE YOU FEEL BETTER SOON.
Avatar n tn All day I feel depressed and I have feelings of dread and pent up sadness, my teacher noticed today and suggested I get professional help from a doctor. Would you consider this clinical depression or would you consider this hormones and me feeling guilty about getting in trouble and stress from school?

Avatar m tn Dear all, My girlfriend is stopped with birth control around 5 months ago. We're planning to have a baby. She's having severe acne which started when she stopped taking the pill. Acne on the forehead and the chin, not really in the middle of her face. She's taking zinc and evening primrose oil for about one month now which made not really any difference so far. Has anyone an idea what to do to get it more under control ?

Avatar f tn Well, I am a 12 year old girl and I think I might be suffering from depression. I've been told I look and act alot older then I am. But last year a week or so before my birthday. I got the courage to go to my school conselar and I told her that I cut myself. I didn't didnt do it to deep or long enough to leave scars but, just enough that my friends were worried over me, thought that I needed help. My school conselar then told my parents about it.

Avatar n tn Namaste, Zoloft is an antidepressant in a group of drugs called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Zoloft affects chemicals in the brain that may become unbalanced and cause depression, panic, anxiety, or obsessive-compulsive symptoms. You may have thoughts about suicide when you first start taking an antidepressant, especially if you are younger than 24 years old.
Avatar m tn Conventional medical wisdom holds that hormones, not diet, are the main causes for the development of acne, particularly during the teenage years. However, some interesting evidence now suggests a possible link between acne and obesity driven by eating a high-glycemic load diet.
