What Is Citrobacter Koseri?

Citrobacter Koseri was found in facial acne of my 26 year old daughter and we are having a hard time finding much information on this bacteria. She has been to a few different doctors, but the antibiotics she has been given has only made the acne worse. Have you seen this bacteria presented in facial acne?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern for your daughter if this is case of acne then just forget about the name of organism because the presence of bacteria in the acne is likely and antibiotic usually being given along with treatment of acne and what ever name of bacteria are there they responds to given antibiotic very well, so just no need to worry about this, in my opinion the best antibiotic is Tab Doxycycline 100 mg once in day for 15 days, hope this information helps you, have a nice day.
