Skin Conditions - December 2006

Have devoloped over the last couple of days (Too much xmas shopping) really hard skin on my feet, and boy are they sore. I have a foot file and the scrub and moisturiser but they do not seem to be doing the job. Any good treatments out there I can go and buy say from Boots tomorrow?

Lately I've been having cystic acne (blind zits). I used to only get them about once per year, rarely twice per year. Since October I have had 6 of them. I've been on the pill for over a year and a half and I know they say BC is one way of helping the cysts. Is the medicine wearing off? I'm not on insurance so it's not like I can just walk into a clinic and ask for Accutane, my budget is pretty slim as it is.

Are there any home sollutions that actually work on cystic acne? Because that's all I'm looking for.
I posted this before, and all the answer I got were not effective. Don't suggest Proactive, epsom salt, lemon juice, witch hazel, toothpaste, hot compress, popping (and yes I know you're not supposed to pop cysts), eyedrops to get rids of redness, rubbing alcohol, face wash, exfoliant...I wash my face once, sometimes twice a day and exfoliate almost everyday since I have very dry skin. Will anything besides these work?

wake up to spilt out this substance. I also had a lower tooth decay on my lower right jaw. The liquid that I had split out was red like blood. Could this be the cause and also during day time my mouth feel very uncomfortable and when it comes to night time, it would be the worse like very sticky and so I had to wake to rinse my mouth with water. Am i suffering from some kind of skin related problems. I also suffered itchy skin sensations every now and then all over my body are the above descriptions closely related to my skin problems. I hope to get some true answers to my problems. Thank you.

i used to have acne, then i used a medicine that dries the skin and removes the upper layer in order to get rid of all the acne... well this is when my skin started scarring. it never did before and i have no idea why it is. everytime i get acne its scarring, is there anyway to stop the scarring from happening, maybe using skin lotion that removes the dryness of the skin

and how do i stop breaking out, i wash my face twice daily but it just continues happening

I have serious itching on my testicles for some time now. It continues for many a days and the only relief I get is after applying an ointment that contains the drug by some name "Mometasone Fluorate.....".
The part of the testicle skin where the itch occurs becomes very hard and softens only after a few hours after I apply the above mentioned ointment, which also releives me from the itch for the next couple of days.

I would like to know ;

1. What the exact problem do I have?
2. Is it 100% cureable? As it keeps surfacing after every few days.
3. What could be the cause of skin getting hard?

Today I was helping a customer and hadn't made any eye contact, so when I was giving him the receipt I made sure to look at him and say thanks for coming in. But I wish I hadn't.

I'm not exaggerating; his eye, neck and chin had a massive amount of wart-like things. It looked like about 50 warts growing together into a huge bundle protruding from each of these areas. He also had large warts on other parts of his face, neck, and hands.

Not only am I disgusted, but I am afraid of catching some kind of disease. I made sure to wash my hands immediately and used disinfectant on my computer and the counter so other customers wouldn't pick up any germs.

So what condition does he have? Are they really warts? Can it spread to other people?

I'm been taking pills and using creams on my face for acne for about 3 months now and all of a sudden my scalp is terribly itchy, esecially at night. I can't seem to stop scratching. I don't have lice, but I'm just trying to figure out what the problem could be. Any idea? I'm guessing my meds, but how do I get rid of this problem?

At night I use a cleanser (0.5% salicylic acid), scrub, acne mask, toner, acne treatment (1% salicylic acid and moisturizer with 0.5% salicylic acid. In the morning I use the cleanser, toner, treatment, and moisturizer and my skin has not been irritated and it has cleared up the acne somewhat but not completely. At night I started using a toner with 0.5% salicylic acid to get rid of the remaining acne and the plain toner in the morning but my skin has become dry and irritated. I think it's best to switch back to the salicylic acid free toner. I also recently heard that b. peroxide works best in the morning and salicylic at night. I'm thinking of going back to my original night routine and just using Stridex Power Pads (which have 2.5% benzoyl peroxide) and using cetaphil as a moisturizer in the morning time. Do you think using B. Peroxide in the morning and salicylic at night will irritate my skin? Also do you need to wash your face before using Power Pads?
