Hello,
As per your case history, you are suffering from Acneform eruption.
My treatment advice is:
1. Do not squeeze the lesions as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply a clindamycin gel like Glocin twice daily on it.
3. Take a vitamin c supplement once daily for 3 months.
4. Other treatment options are oral doxycyline, minocycline and isotretinoin taken only after consulting a dermatologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Harshit Bhachech
