hi Welcome to Healthcare Magic Forum you are suffering from a very common problem namely acne vulgaris. Before coming to the exact treatment, i would like you to follow certain precautions: 1. Avoid using any oily creams or lotions over face as much as possible. you can however use oil free moisturisers 2. Wash your face frequently inorder to keep it dry 3. Drink plenty of water 4. Try to avoid eating dry fruits 5.Avoid touching or squeezing of pimples 6. Avoid Hair oil 7. Always use a sunscreen (SPF 26) when going out in the sun You might need to apply some antiacne medications over the affected area. I prefer to start with something like like Clindamycin gel in my patients. Oral contraceptives are known to cause acne, so if you have many lesions, you might as well consult your gynecologist for change in the drug. But if inspite of the above measures, you continue to develop the lesions, then you might need a course of oral antibiotics. So i would recommend that you visit a dermatologist in that case for proper examination and treatment . Hope it helps Dr Geetika Paul
