Suggest Remedy For Acne & Pimples
I am 26 years old and I have been suffering from this problem of bcak acne for past 5-6 years now.
I do not have severe acne, but the problem is that I keep getting a pimple one after the another. So at any point of time, I will have a pimple or 2 on my back which often burst and bleed. Therfore, my back is full with pimple marks and is really not good sight to see
I have consulted doctors before and have been prescribed various medicines for external use and for intake. Till the the time I take the course, i stop getting pimples and after completion of the course they come back again.
For past 1 month and so I have started getting a whole lot of pimples. Please suggest what treatment I shoud go for for pimples as well as pimple marks?
and let me know when can I visit the clinic in Bangalore?

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query acne and pimples since 5-6 years which occur when there is hormonal changes, stress and clogged pores of sebaceous gland filled with sebum ,dead skin and bacteria get infected. You are already taking so much medicine but not get benefited. I would suggest you to drink plenty of water daily and add fresh fruits and vegetables to your diet. Also wash your face with mild soap and cold water twice a day , exfoliate your face once a week , apply aloe vera gel and apply azelaic acid containing cream twice a day. Apply Meladerm cream and it is purely safe to use as this is combination of hydroquinone, Tretinoin and steroid and apply it at night time. Apply Adapelene gel once at night. If condition doesn't start getting better in a month then consult dermatologist. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics course and can also go for chemical peel containing Glycolic acid.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
