Acne with pus
Hello,My daughter 13 yr old has been suffering from acne since past 1-2yrs.We consulted a dermatologist last year and she prescribed Minolox 100 to be taken daily(along with topical creams).She took the medicine for 3mths and the acne reduced.So she stopped taking it( this was 4mths ago).
But since a month her acne has flared up again,it's mostly pus filled.
Please tell,
.how long do we have to take minolox(antibiotics) so that acne completely goes away?
.if we stop taking the medicine will the acne always come back?then she can never stop the medicine .won't there be side effects?
.is there any other way to cure pus filled acne problem?
The doctor had also prescribed vitamin supplements for hairfall issue.Do these supplements also help in acne problem?
Acne or pimples... Due to hormonal changes..Oily skin causes it...Common in adolescent age...May occur in adults also.. Food like Oily foods, ice cream, chocolate and sweets increase it.. Treatment depends on the grade of pimples or acne..So, please send photos by direct online consultation as it's a must to see which grade of pimples or acne for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
