Suggest Treatment For Itchy Acne On Face
Dear Doc,
I'm having issue with my facial skin recently. I can say that i have developed sand-like acne on my face. They are itchy and i cant ignore them till they bleed. I cant use any sort of soap, lotions or moisturizers. Now its so dry and leave patchy spots. Its ridiculous to go out in the day or night. Family and friends say i have ignored the issue and worsened it. Every one gives me a surprised look and say what happened. Cant keep explaining. Please advice.

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have itchy acne on face and you have sand like acne on face which seems to be due to clogging of skin pores and accumulation of bacteria and debris in them. I would suggest you to make use of kojivit plus cream as it will lighten your skin and use product containing benzoyl peroxide. Apply Adapelene gel once at night. Drink plenty of water daily and add fresh fruits and vegetables to your diet. Also wash your face with mild soap and cold water twice a day , exfoliate your face once a week. If condition doesn't start getting better in a month then consult dermatologist. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics course and can also go for chemical peel containing Glycolic acid.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
