Hello, I have swelling on my face in the area of my jaw and cheeks. I noticed the swelling by the third month. I haven't taken the drug in 4 months and the swelling hasn't improved. My lymph nodes in the area of my jaw and neck also swelled up in the 4 month of therapy. I dont know what to do next, can someone help please?
Help. I am a 32 yr old female. After i had my daughter, she is almost 3 yr old. I started with breakouts on my back and arms. Doctors didnt know what it was . Fast forward 2 years and my back isnt as bad but still broke out and now i will get random break outs on my face and neck. What is this!!?
I've been seeing a dermatologist for 3 years about folliculitis on my chest, back, face and neck. Upon stopping Ziana my acne turned into folliculitis. The only antibiotic that worked was Bactrim. I was on it 3 times for 1-2 months each time. It always returns and seems to be less effective. Culture showed staph, biopsy-folliculitis with normal flora. The bumps can be extracted by pressing and appear as solidified oil. I've tried spirolactone,washes,retinoids,diflucan, bactrim oral antibiotics.
The acnes and whiteheads are going away faster than before. I am also getting new ones too. Its on my neck and back. My doctor said that it should be normal. I am 18 years old
I am 32 years old and have had pretty mild acne throughout my life. That all changed after having both ovaries removed almost 2 years ago. I get huge painful cysts on my neck and jawline that leave red marks for weeks. I am on 0.625/2.5mg Prempro for hormone replacement. It's at the point where I won't leave the house for any reason without full makeup. I do try to take good care of my skin by using very mild cleanser and noncomedogenic oils (rosehip seed, argan, tea tree, jojoba, etc.) Help!
I'm currently on my 8th week of roaccutane. The first 4 weeks were 30mg and seen my skin get worse. After week 4 I started on 70mg and now have seen my skin get much much worse. My acne was loacalised to my chin and chest but now I have it on my cheeks, neck, chin, forehead and jaw. Why is this happening and when should I get concerned. My lips are so dry they constantly crack and extremely painful. I can't eat in public as my skin around my mouth cracks and flakes with the movement of eating.
I've been breaking out on my face, neck, ears, back, chest, all the way down to my stomach and the top of my buttocks since I was 11. I'm now 26. I've tried antibiotics, prescription topical ointments, and quite literally every over the counter treatment. Nothing makes more than a small difference. I've been considering accutane for a few years now. Is it possible I could be prescribed it, without having to do more bogus topicals and antibiotics? I live in the Phoenix area.
I have been taking accutane for 5 days now. I started experiencing back pain on the third day along with dryness. I know dryness is usual but, i thought back pain, and joint pain came later. Over the past two days it has gotten increasingly worse and now i can feel it in my neck. Will this go away in a few weeks? should i be worried? (I am taking 80mg a day)
