Avatar f tn It spread ALL OVER my cheeks and jawline in these huge pimples and my old acne was just a memory. Now, it has gotten worse over the past few weeks- dark red, cysts, pustules covering my face where my beard would be if I were a man. My t zone is basically clear. My nose is very clear and my forehead has the normal breakouts I had before- sporadic and hyperpigmented. (I'm Mexican and always hyperpigment for every little thing!
Avatar n tn Widely available OTC bactericidal products containing benzoyl peroxide may be used in mild to moderate acne. The gel or cream containing benzoyl peroxide is rubbed, twice daily, into the pores over the affected region. Bar soaps or washes may also be used and vary from 2 to 10% in strength. Externally applied antibiotics such as erythromycin, clindamycin, Stievamycin, or tetracycline aim to kill the bacteria that are harbored in the blocked follicles. ref:http://en.wikipedia.

Avatar f tn Ask for doctor prescription. I read on pregnancy book that Clindamycin+Benzoyl Peroxide works.
Avatar n tn I also have some scars in my face, like tiny holes because of acne. besides the treatment i´m already in to eliminate them, is there anything else I can do to accelerate the process of removing them?
Avatar m tn I have suffered from acne thoroughout my teens and since my skin is acne-prone, i do break out even now once in a while in my mid 30s. However, i am able to control it by thorough cleaning, and applying a preparation containing clindamycin and Nicotinamide. This one works every time. I make sure to use it only in the night or indoors in the day. Thing is, i know that I will need to keep applying it on a regular basis or else my acne prone skin breaks out sooner or later.
Avatar f tn I work in wound care in the hospital, dont use alcohol or anything that will dry it out. That actually slows healing process.
Avatar m tn I am a caucasian male wtih acne prone skin, I get short haircuts with a shave machine there often, but never recall getting anything like this. I am concerned because they just sit there. I have seen a dermatologist but she just seemed to shrug it off. Not helpful. Thanks again!
Avatar f tn If the acne persist then you may need topical antibiotics like Clindamycin cream for which you should consult a dermatologist. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
Avatar f tn Thoroughly wash your body everyday, especially the back and shoulder part using a back brush and frequently change your bed sheet, as it is conducive for bacterial growth. Engage in a diet that is low in sugar and fat but is rich in vitamins. This prevents acne by preventing the buildup of excess oil on the skin. Also refrain from touching or squeezing your shoulder acne. Also try to keep your hair free of dandruff by using good antidandruff shampoos.
Avatar n tn OTC bactericidal products containing benzoyl peroxide may be used in mild to moderate acne. The gel or cream containing benzoyl peroxide is rubbed, twice daily, into the pores over the affected region. Antibiotics such as erythromycin, clindamycin can be applied on the lesions. You cannot really keep them from recurring if your skin is prone to developing them. You can make appropriate dietary adjustments, if it is applicable to you.
Avatar m tn Most of the time, after each visit I get a mild breakout of small pimples that go away in a few days. There was one located on the left side right at the line where the hair ends. it rubbed against my shirt and/or coat collar and became infected (after I picked at it). Now it is infected with swelling and pain going down the side of my neck almost to the collarbone.

1364054 tn?1346005167 Hi! I´m 21 year old female. The dermatologist said I have mild acne on my face and back and erythema on my face. My cycles are irregular, but I visited gynaecologist and she said everything is ok. My dermatologist gave me for therapy Sona gel by night, during the day Klindamicin gel/ 3 weeks and then neutral creams, Hiramycin caps a 100mg 2x1/7days, then 1x1/2weeks, and UV protection. What do You think about it? My problem started when I heard that Klindamicin gel can´t be bought in my country.

Avatar m tn Vitamin A strengthens the protective tissue of the skin and helps in reducing sebum production. Topical medications like benzoyl peroxide, clindamycin and retinoid are used in treating acne. It is suggested to see a dermatologist before using these products. Keep me posted. Take care and regards!
Avatar f tn Im 20 years old. I have acne scars and pimples . I went to a Dermatologist and he recommended me to use adapalene & clindamycin phosphate gel but now my face gets burning sensation and has got shine wherever I used that product. also the pimples which I had is turning into some kind of mark. I discontinued using after 10 days. Will it be proper by itself?
Avatar f tn If you are having recalcitrant acne in women then probably oral contraceptive containing norgestimate 0.25 mg and ethinyl estradiol 0.035 mg; spironolactone; prednisone. If you have acne where sweating is an aggravating factor then aluminum chloride solution should be your choice of your treatment. Acne surgery are done for comedone expression; incision and drainage of fluctuant cysts and abscesses; chemical peel; micro-derm-abrasion; intra-lesional triamcinolone 2–4 mg/ml.
4526747 tn?1356283415 m 37 weeks with a little girl, and because of all the hormones I have been getting a little bit of acne. I was wondering if anyone knew some good, safe products I could use. I have no idea because I never had acne until about 3 months into my pregnancy.
309783 tn?1271958229 I would be interested to hear from anyone with rosacea which did not respond to standard treatments (oxytetracycline/metronidozole/clindamycin) who was subsequently treated in this way. Or anyone who had both cystic acne and rosacea who took Accutane/Roaccutane. Eloise.
1394601 tn?1328032308 ) Are you using this to treat Acne? This is commonly used w/ benzoyl peroxide to treat acne. This also used to treat infections caused by susceptible anaerobic bacteria, including infections of the respiratory tract, skin and soft tissue infections. And a couple other things to consider, If you are child bearing years Condoms or diaphragms may not work to prevent pregnancy. Use another form of birth control while taking this medicine and for 72 hours after treatment ends.
