benzaclin worse before better

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.

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.

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.

I've recently went to the doctor and was prescribed Doxycycline and Benzaclin a topical gel which consists of 1% clindamycin and 5% Benzoyl Peroxide it seems that its getting better, I just wanted to know what your opinion was on this?

luckily treatment is only 6 months cuz im an early responder it was undetetected at wk 4 but its hard to remember that on my sick days when i feel like i cant move and my back pain takes the breath outta me and im 25 so these months ahead seem like forever....

Ive never had a problem with pimples before but now my chin keeps breaking out. The pimples i keep getting are cystic acne. They hurt really bad and nothing helps them go away. This is currently what i use on my face: Face wash with .5% salicylic acid and another facewash with 3.5% benzoyl peroxide. 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.

i had a steroid injection in my neck on Monday every since the injection I have hurt worse than before is normal ? I have has problems sleeping before the neck injury because I have had a fusion at l4 l5 s1. I have ddd and recently found out that I have arthritis in my lower back now.

Thanks for all the support and suggestions, you can never try TOO many things to take away some of the WDS I have learned, some things help for a bit, and some don't you just have to fight through it I suppose?

I remember this happened before, but didnt pay attention to it so much. This just happens to come along with my period this time, and Im not sure it came with my other periods. They've been real irregular. Thats my best guess as to the cause. But its so gross looking. I broke down after it didnt go away after like 4 days of this, I used dawn dishwashing liquid. Bad Idea! It not only didnt work, the rest of my hair has lost all moisture. Yes, I knew better, but whats a girl to do?

I was having similar pain most of yesterday.felt like tugging on my left side...I was told by a nurse friend to do some light stretches before bed and in the am..I am 17 weeks also, if you continue to have pain call your dr.

Definately. My ex insisted that I was worse before my period so I started keeping track. All of my darkest extremely depressed, out of control, destructive behavior happened when I was premenstral. My safest time is just after my period finishes, although if I'm feeling good it is the mist likely time for me to swing up into a hypomania. It makes sense to me that hormones can affect mood so much, they have a powerful impact on so many aspects of our physiology, so why not our psychology too?

I was diagnosed with SVT. Then, I had multiple episodes of SVT where my hr would go from normal to 200s, then down to 30s or 40s in seconds. This occurred several times a minute for several hours. The ER put me on a Holter monitor. It said I had sinus bradycardia down to 43 bmp and sinus tachycardia to 144 bpm. I also had ventricular bigemeny, trigemeny, and couplets without ventricular tachycardia. So, are the new arrythmias better or worse than the SVT? Is the treatment the same?

I have a long history of IGE food allergies. The top 8 plus more. I avoided them for a couple years and added them back in with minimal issues or so I thought but I was overlooking mild ana that was slowly progressing. I used to get hives and have had to go to ER twice to get a steroid after benedryl didn't stop them, along with GI symptoms. Now what I have is anaphylaxis symptoms. My tongue and lips swell and I can see my throat close up.

Thanks to everyone. Feeling better as each day goes by and things slow down. Told my doc and she wants to keep an eye on it in case it gets worse or more frequent. I hadn't thought about it but I quit smoking Sept 29 using Chantix and that may have freeked my body out too. Hard to say, but MS is usually at the forefront. And yes, Mom would be more worried about my health right now. So I will do some relaxation exercises just for her.

What your feeling is probably a herx or herheimer reaction. It's the body's response to die off of the bugs. Its hard because many people feel worse before feeling better. Try detoxing. Some easy ways are taking an Epsom salt bath and drinking lemon water. Taking magnesium is also good. Hang in there. Hope you feel better!
