Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.

As per your query you have symptoms of pimples on the face and shoulder. Well pimples are the result of excessive production of sebum from sebaceous gland as you also mention in your query .There are many factors responsible for pimples like hormonal changes ,too much oily creams ,some medications and environmental factors. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to use benzoyl peroxide lotion twice a day after wash your face with mild soap ,apply ice for 5 minutes on affected area thrice a day. Take steam before going to bed .You can also take oral antibiotics along with it like tetracycline but if you are pregnant or nursing mother then you should take erythromycin. If pimples persists or doesn't improve in one month ,consult dermatologist and start treatment accordingly.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
