The skin on my cheeks seems to be dry right now because of the topical stuff from my dermatologist (retin-a micro gel, used in the morning and left on till night, and benzaclin gel used at night and left on till morning) but normally it feels pretty smooth and kind of soft but also kind of dry. My forehead feels scaly-ish which is probably because of all the imperfections on it but in the summer it is pretty oily and right now in the winter is feels dry and scaly. My jawline is pretty average.
I MAKE SURE to take really good care of my skin but it dosent seem to work. Also i have a prescription face medication cream called BenzaClin which is 1% clindamycin and 5% Benzoyl peroxide. Also, i am away at college far from my house so could it be my face isnt use to the water here? Im not sure what else it could be. Does anyone have any ideas of what i can do to help??? Can someone tell me what has helped them get rid of annoying and stubborn pimmples? Pleasee helpppp.. thanks!
I haverecently gone to my primary physician and dermatologist and they tell me it is acne and prescribed benzaclin/ Atralin and sumaxin. Benzaclin seemed to work at first, but now it seems to make my breakouts worse. The other two prescriptions just dont seem to work at all. What could this be?Herpes? I do have herpes, but my doctor tells me it should only be on the lip (I have it next to the lip) it's not noticeable at all.
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
One doctor prescribed Benzaclin and another doctor referred me to a dermatologist. After scheduling an appointment with a dermatologist and waiting over three months I ended up seeing a PAC and not an actual dermatologist (if that matters).
Unfortunately I lost the notes I had from the visit but she said I had Sebaceous something or the other. She said there wasn't really anything I could do to clear it up. She gave me a Tretinoin prescription for acne in general.
s nothing really to pop. It usually goes away within the week. I also have been using Benzaclin for the past few months. I try to use it only when i have a pimple coming on. I know it can make my skin very sensative. I've never had a cold sore, but could this be one?? I dont feel any tingling or the other symptoms I've read about concerning cold sores.
Also, do you think it is alright for him to use his (DCL) revitalizing gel (use for dy skin if you have heard of it) or should he use something like a Lubriderm or CeraVe lotion because he has been using a prescription gel (Benzaclin) at night (it was to clear up the folliculitis) that dries his skin? Thank you so much for your time.
For a prescription of -0.75, what is the equivalent of the vision in terms of 20/20. Is it 20/75?
Is it possible for a contact lens prescription to improve without having any vision correction? My prescription went from -3.75 to -3.50.
Can my doctor refuse to fill my prescription for diabetes unless I get the covid test? Is this legal?
I am currently taking benzaclin and erythromycin gel at night and Evoclin foam in the day. I also tweeze and wax the hairs. I was wondering if tretinoin cream would help prevent ingrown hairs due to increased epithelial cell turnover?
I know laser treatment would be most beneficial but cannot afford it at the moment. What can I do in the meantime to help prevent ingrown hair and pimples in the hair follicle?
I posted before about how my myopia prescription recently increased quite significantly, and how my doctor said it might have been due to the fact that I didn't wear my glasses all the time for a while(my lens got cracked). Now my new Rx is quit high, -7.5 and -8.5. I have a contacts Rx of -6 in each eye and see 20/20 or better with them, but I can't keep them on all the time because my eyes get very dry.
I would like to order from Zenni online as I am on social security but I must make sure my prescription is correct. I got bifocals from Americas best last year which are fine using this script: OD SPH+25 / CYL -75 / AXIS 145 / ADD +2.50......OS SPH +25 / CYL -75 / AXIS 012 / ADD + 2.50. In June of this year I went to my opthalmologist for my biannual checkup and was handed this prescription (I was told there was hardly any difference, but they sure write it differently)....OD SPH -0.
Then, even though the BPH questionnaire showed me to be nowhere near having it, the urologist wrote me a prescription for Finasteride. I have searched all over the web and several medical and medication reference books at the library and can find not a single place where it says that Finasteride has anything to do with the problem of blood in the semen. All I have read points to Finasteride lessening the symptoms of BPH, symptoms I do not have.
I have had eye strain for a while since NOV of 07, and having horrible tightning head aches on the side of my head where my eyes are, and i would get dizzy, i notice that when that tightning gets worse i can see that my eyes are definitly cross. I went in to see my O.D, and he said that my eyes did change for the better and that my astigmatism had changed from axis 180 to 10.Is that enough to cause all that?
