Acne is due to an overactivity and plugging of the oil glands.The main cause of acne is increased levels of hormones during adolescence.
Just keep you face clean by washing with a mild soap atleast twice a day.Pat it dry and do not rub it.Avoid picking or pressing the acne.You can also use Benzoyl peroxide 5% lotion or gel once at bedtime. An amount of lotion the size of a pea should be enough to cover most of your face. If your skin becomes red or peels, you are using too much of the medicine or applying it too often.
Hope it helps. Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries.
Thanks for the info. Can neosporin antibiotic help? I have benn putting that on and it is starting to go away. If i ever need your help again i will post a comment. I don't know how to thank you for the info.
Yes,you can apply Neosporin ointment on the pimple. Wash the areas several times with fresh water. Do not use any cosmetic products at the sites. You can apply some calamine lotion or Neosporin cream on the spots as it will help in soothing the skin. You can take some OTC oral antihistamine medications like Benadryl or Claritin if the bump itches.
If still the symptoms do not improve then pls get a clinical examination done by a dermatologist.
