Avatar f tn It has been calledacne necrotica, acne necrotica miliaris, acne varioliformis, acne frontalis, acne atrophica, or pustular perifolliculitis. Acne necrotica is actually a misnomer, because it is not a variant of acne and bears only a superficial resemblance to an acneiform eruption. We suggest the termnecrotizing lymphocytic folliculitis. http://link.springer.com/chapter/10.
Avatar m tn Two of them has actually turned into a red pimple (not sure if its really related, but I RARELY have acne and these have grown in the cluster spot in a shot interval) and some of them seem to have a small white head that can be scratched off. I never had such a LARGE cluster in the same place. In fact, I never had an acne problem before, I always had a clear skin... I have used a 2% salicylic acid as a face wash each morning for a week, and the cluster is still there..
Avatar m tn i dont know what this is so i put the topic as acne but i have little red dots above my eye lid and below my eyebrow. it doesnt hurt and the arent bumpy but i dont like it and it scares me!!
Avatar n tn rarely one will swell and it seems logical to pop it (although probably not at all sensible) and it appears to be a white pus similar to that in acne, but i dont think its acne because the white bumps dont come and go like acne does. please leave some suggestions. also how can this be treated? thanks.
Avatar m tn I have, what I can only describe as acne which is confined to my scalp. I am troubled by lots of spots and pimples, some have yellow puss in, some are just red spots. All are very sore to the touch. The main area of outbreak is a band across the back of my scalp from temple to temple, the sort of area where a hat band would contact your head. The spots are constantly appearing but I have periods of more severs outbreak. I have oily hair which I have to wash every day with baby shampoo.
Avatar f tn Avoid any kind of cosmetics and do not pop the pimples. Topical antibiotics such as mupirocin or neomycin containing ointment are also useful. In case the symptoms persist then oral antibiotics or incision and drainage may be needed. Please consult a dermatologist in that case. Also then the possibility of cystic acne has to be ruled out. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
Avatar n tn Do you shave? It could possibly be razor burn if you do. Also, you can just get acne around your genitals if you don't wash well enough. A lot of women gen genital acne because they don't realize how thuroughly you have to clean yourself. Don't use acne cremes or face washes down there though, because you could give yourself severe irritation. Take a warm washcloth with body wash and clean the area gently.
Avatar n tn what can i do for this acne in my upper lip, could it be a cold sore i was tested for all std and was negative , i get them all year round, i have real thick hair
Avatar n tn There are at least seven bright red swollen sore spots. With pressure they ooze bloody serous type secretion. I have put all kinds of acne meds on them, but they've been there for over a month. I'm way too old to be having this kind of thing.
Avatar f tn I continue to experience cyst-like ingrown hairs on my inner thighs, even in the absence of hair removal procedures. It looks similar to cystic acne, though not as painful (except to look at). What are the best ways to prevent ingrown hairs? And, what can I do to treat ingrown hairs when I do get them?? Thanks in advance.
Avatar n tn (theres about 16 little pimples in a clustered area mid-thigh) i have no bumps or pimples or anything out of sorts in my vagina area, and i am prone to have body acne and acne on my face and tend to have sensitive skin. could this be by letting the contact of her fluids dried out and my skin cause irritation-- or something else?
Avatar n tn Am 62, female - for sometime have had sm. white bumps on upper lip, around mouth and on chin - white, thread like matter when mashed (no pus) Have VERY dry skin & acne meds really tear up my face. Would be ever so grateful to know what & how to treat.
Avatar n tn itching rash on face,chest,and back that looks like acne. i have been to dermotolgist and he said it was sensitive skin or allergic to uv rays. i have tried triamcinolone acetonide cream that the doctor prescribed and only helps alittle on itching. this has been going on for a year now. any suggestions?
Avatar n tn Hello I have the strange problem of being unable to identify what it is that is going on with my skin. I hope to get some help. I have small bumps on my back and arms. It is not Keratosis Pilaris, or anything like it. It is not acne, as touching the bumps do not hurt like acne and they don't "break out", the bumps are just there. There is no pain, itching, or swelling associated with the bumps.
Avatar f tn Not really sure where to post this because its like a rash but acne at the same time. It has lasted for about 10 months and I take protopic and it seems to help and Triamcinolone works but as soon as I stop using them it comes back in just a couple days. I just want a cure for this because medications help but it just keeps coming back. As you can see, it is just a group of small bumps acne like, they are not painful and they just show up almost overnight and are somewhat bright red.
Avatar f tn I got these ances on October 2012, since I put Bio oil on my face after shaving, in order to remove a tiny acne scar, although my skin on the face got 1 or 2 little wounds after shaving. At the beginning, I felt my skin was burning after I put Bio oil on my face. 1 day later, ances occurred and my skin itched. I went to see a doctor. He said my skin is very healthy, I was afraid that I was allergic. The symptom(acne) is still there.
Avatar n tn Hello, It is difficult confirming a diagnosis without examination but it can be acne or plain warts. Please keep the area clean and apply some topical antiseptics. Also use an antibacterial soap or mild soap like dove. Avoid any kind of cosmetics. Topical antibiotics such as mupirocin or neomycin containing ointment are also useful. In case the symptoms persist then oral antibiotics may be needed. Please consult a dermatologist in that case. Also then get the possibility of warts ruled out.
Avatar n tn Okay so Ive been suffering from acne for about 5 years or so, and Ive never experienced anything like this. I woke up one morning and noticed that I had very small whiteheads on the left side of my face. I dismissed it as regular acne and didnt think much of it, but as the day went on I noticed that it started to spread. The next morning I woke up with these whiteheads ALL over my face.
Avatar m tn At age of 15 i started getting regular acne but over the years its just become more like boils or ingrown hairs. Ive tried everything possible out there to the point that i gave up. Nothing works at all and i keep on getting this medium size to large boils on face, neck, back even in between legs and pubic hair area.
1050611 tn?1253752540 I have a 14 month old toddler and she has developed a rash that is red with acne-like bumps on top. She does not have dry skin. It has now developed on both forearms and no where else on her body. The weather has been quite humid for the past few days around the time it developed. She has had this rash for about 4 days now.
Avatar n tn So I've never really had acne problems before. I scar really easy, so I try to be careful when I do get any kind of acne or skin problem. Just recently, I've notice these..."pimple" like things. They're had to describe, alls i know is that they've turned into "holes" in my skin. It's embarassing, but there is quite a few. I have one on my breast, like three on my shoulder, and more on my butt.
Avatar f tn t thought nothing more of it except when they were drained/squeezed, the skin would bubble with the oil and eventually turn a brownish gray color and formed a scab like film- nothing I had ever experienced. I also never got acne on my chest before. These spots WOULD NOT go away and I tried multiple acne topical meds such as benzoyl peroxide. When in the shower I noticed that the scab like coverings would start to detach.
