acne. As you can probably tell from my picture acne isn't much of an issue for me. I generally get a pimple or two every month. Usually I don't get any. I was prescribed an antibiotic for cystic acne and I really don't think I should take it.
Do you think this is an acne cyst or should I seek a second opinion? I'm living in Mexico and health care here is sometimes dubious. His examination of the spot took maybe 60 seconds. I am not sure what is normal since I've never been to a dermatologist before.
edit to ad: it is quite flat against my skin. I have also had trouble with it bleeding once when it was flat. This leads me to believe that it's possibly a vascular issue. It reminds me vaguely of the hemangioma I had as a child.
Possibly a furuncle. You can only feel and tell if it is cystic acne. In any case antibiotic is indicated, Does not have features of anything vascular.My I know which has been prescribed?
Best wishes,
