Hi,
It seems that most probably you may be having trunkal acne. You consult dermatologist for firm diagnosis. However you may follow as below..
- azithromycine 500 mg thrice a week
- isotretinoin 10 mg daily
- vitamin E cap 400 mg daily
- apply benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel at night on lesions
- avoidance of triggering factors...stress,tension,oily food,constipation,exercise, sleeplessness,travelling...etc
I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
