Hello doctor,
I have developed many pimple marks on my face. My face mostly remains oily. Pimples still appear on my face at the age of 22.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Can you please upload a few pictures if possible to advice proper treatment?
Patient's Query
Thank you doctor,
I have attached the files.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
It is acne vulgaris grade 2. Treatment involves capsule Microdox Lbx 100 mg (Doxycycline) one tablet daily at night. Apply Deriva BPO gel daily at night (very less in amount. If irritation appears wash after hours or else keep overnight). Apply Aziderm 20 % gel daily morning. Continue these medications for minimum three weeks and review.
Patient's Query
Thank you doctor,
Should the creams be applied all over the face or only on the pimples?
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
Initially, apply only on pimples for a few days. If no irritation, then you can apply on cheeks and forehead. Do not apply near eyes, nose, and corners of the mouth.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
