Cystic Acne treatment?

I have only recently begun to have terrible acne, and the doc did say that there is some cystic acne. I cant see a dermatologist as there are none available at all in my area, and my GP told me he wont prescribe anything till fall because of the reactions of these meds to the sun. He did recommend an over the counter product, but after one month it began to irritate my skin to the point it was burning. So--the acne is worsening and it HURTS. Isnt there something I can do or use? I have really, really sensitive skin.





I am SO sick of this. I also have Lupus, but I am pretty sure that has nothing to do with it other than causing a severe reaction to a combination of sun and medications....Please help if you can....but please don't say proactive solution.....thanks.Cystic Acne treatment?
Here are some REALLY good, and very inexpensive ways to treat most acne at home. Try each method (unless you鈥檙e allergic to the ingredients) until you find one that works best for you. Good luck =) BTW, I know some of these may sound bizarre but try them鈥hat have you got to lose other than the acne!!





1. Put toothpaste on your acne before going to bed. (Make sure it is paste not gel). It should reduce the swelling of acne noticeably.





2. Dab egg whites on your acne and leave on for 20 minutes or overnight. It鈥檚 supposed to pull the infection out of the blemish.





3. Wash acne infected areas twice a day with warm salt water. This reduces oils in the skin and helps to dry the acne up without further agitation.





4. Use ice on acne before going to bed. This works best on pimples that have not yet formed a head. It reduces swelling and helps to prevent scarring.





5. Wash and dab acne with cotton balls that have been soaked in vinegar. Let dry; do not wash off immediately.





6. Place strawberries leaves over your acne and the alkalinity will help to reduce the swelling.Cystic Acne treatment?
Cystic acne can be treated with Accutane. It is costly but works wonders. See a doctor or dermatologist for a perscription. Insurance may cover it or some of it. Cystic acne can cause scarring on your face if not treated. Good Luck!


Oh, you have to stay out of the sun and assuming your female can not get pregnant (they will put you on the pill.)
If you鈥檙e looking for accurate acne information, best to see a dermatologist. Some people believe doctors are predisposed to take the easy way to deal with acne鈥?prescription drugs. But, with many, this simplistic answer may not be the appropriate course of action. Some feel that such prescription drugs just treat the symposium and not the underlying cause. But, a local dermatologist is still your best starting point.


For me personally, I discovered a great informational acne treatment site. Not only is there good information/articles but I got their audio e-book and following it鈥檚 advice can now say that my acne is a thing of the past! Keep in mind, were all different and there are various types of acne, so what works for some may not be totally effective for all.





Bottom line, hang in there, you will get past this! Sincere best wishes and good luck.


Oh, by the way the site that helped me is:

An Introduction to Acne Treatment


Dave Lavinsky


Nearly 17 million people in the United States have acne, making it the most common skin disease. Acne affects almost all teenagers as well as a growing number of adults. It attacks all kinds of skin - with little regard to race or gender - on the face, neck, chest, back, shoulders, and upper arms. It can take the form of whiteheads, blackheads, pimples, nodules and cysts 鈥?even permanent scars. Often, acne clears up after several years, even without treatment. Sometimes, however, action needs to be taken.





Acne is formed when skin cells inside hair follicles shed too fast and clump together, plugging up the follicle and causing a pimple. While mostly genetic, acne can be aggravated by any combination of stress, hormonal activity, hyperactive sebaceous glands, accumulation of dead skin cells, bacteria in the pores, skin irritation or scratching of any sort, anabolic steroids, medications containing halogens (iodides, chlorides, bromides), moisturizer overuse, hair removal, lithium, barbiturates, androgens, or exposure to high levels of chlorine compounds.





Many acne sufferers think they have no recourse but to wait it out and pray that theirs is not a severe case. Today, an overwhelming variety of preventions and treatments exist to combat every kind of acne, from the humblest of whiteheads to the most vicious cystic inflammations. From kitchen to pharmacy to natural food store to dermatologist鈥檚 office, there are dozens and dozens of treatment routes you can take, depending on your case of acne.





Over-the-counter topical treatments are your first line of defense against acne outbreaks. Benzoyl peroxide is the most popular chemical for this type of treatment, coming in such sommonly known brands as Clearasil, Oxy, and Neutrogena. It is important to treat acne early on, as all treatments are actually preventions against later outbreaks. For more severe cases, there are oral and topical prescription medications, as well as traditional or laser surgery. Acne Treatment provides detailed information on the best acne treatments, including laser acne treatment, and scar treatment, as well as adult, natural, home treatment, and more. Acne Treatment is the sister site of Microdermabrasion Web.

What did your GP recommend for over the counter? I have very sensitive skin too, one thing that was over the counter that helped a little was Clearasil Adult Care Acne Treatment Cream, it has a Sulphur antibiotic in it, not Benzoyl Peroxide so it didn't dry my skin and make it as red. I'm currently using perscription acne treatments but if your GP refuses to give you anything right now (personally I'd see another doc), you could give it a try.
