Fungal acne on skin treatment

2025-10-02 04:22:28
I have weird acne growing on one part of my face, it is not regular acne that I get, it is very stubborn and is not going away, but definitely increasing in size. I can see puss growing inside it now. It is slightly painful, and I'm afraid its spreading. It has been there for almost 2 weeks,growing slowly. I clean my face twice daily with a normal facewash and don't really use any specific cream for my face, mostly aloe vera gel. Can someone please recommend an over the counter solution for this? Some antifungal cream safe for face or similar? Image attatched for reference

Acne ... 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 more photos by direct online consultation as it's a must to see which grade of pimples or acne for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Acne lesions won't be same always. There are many factors that effect severity of acne. So detailed history and clear images are required for proper management. Over the counter solution is not enough for this type of lesions. Do not use medicine without proper prescription.

kindly book online consultation for further management
