What Causes Acne Breakout All Over Body?

Hey, my friend has skin acne, it grows all over his body and when it erupts, it produces white substance. He went to many doctors, they said that it s die to fungi in his surroundings. Whenever he goes to a doctor, he gives him a different medication from the other one. He is starting to feel depressed about it and it s hurting him. What should he do?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your acne breakout all over body which could be due to clogging of skin pores, due to bacterial infection of hair follicles and it could be due to nutritional deficiency, fungal infection and stress. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to take antihistamine medication such as benadryl as it seems to be allergic reaction. Apply aloe vera gel and betnovate cream twice daily. Drink plenty of fluids. If condition doesn't get better then consult dermatologist again for proper diagnosis and to rule out any underlying condition. Doctor may prescribe steroid ointment or antibiotics course. Take Multivitamin supplements.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
