Skin Conditions - January 2007

What is the best over-the-counter product for acne on my face and back? It would be great if I could just buy it at walgreens or something. I need to get treatment quickly and efficiently though.

My face is a perfect mess its driving me crazy.First of all I started with pimples when i was only 14 and now i am 15 and can't get rid of them.But,what is strange is that i only have them on my cheeks.For e.g. when sponge bob smile his cheeks light up red okay same with me.I have a patch of pimples on both of my cheeks ONLY.It don't spread to my chin or to the side of my face or any thing.And on my 4head ready to shine like stars in the night can't miss them.The ones on my 4head is not that big but it kinda hurt when you press on them,they don't get rid or ripe or any thing (strange to me). and my cheeks pimples get real big and red and i am brown skin and its really red (strange to me).Now i don't pick at my pimples or any thing and it leave marks and the marks stay red.I try to cover them with make up and stuff but the scars still show Oh JESUS HELP ME!!. I am beautiful but i just can't prove it without clear skin HELP ME PLZ!!! these pimples just won't go away no matter what i do

Ok I have I believe 1.5 grade acne and have had it for a while. I been using finacea, clydistine pads, and differen for a while and no good. I recently got doxycycline and was wondering if it could at all cause constipation, everything I've read and talked with said it didn't but I just wanted to make sure. I've had serious problems with constipation and diahrea recently, and wouldn't want to mess with that. Also I've heard some scary things about doxycycline, but I'm desperate to clean up my face already. I am most worried about constipation and I've been feeling some pressure in my chest, does anyone have any advice, maybe a success story with this pill or, a recommedation for another pill? It comes and goes, but never goes fully away, and I really want my face clean already, I'm 22 years old btw, and have had it since I was 17 or so. Its not necarrily I have acne, I do, but also redness and marks. I also have acne on my face and on my thigh. Thank you.

i am 13 and have had head lice twice before and whenever i think its gone its not. my mom thinks im paranoid but i can tell when the itching is normal or not. i get very easily embarrased and don't want 2 tell anyone except my parents. i've used mayo,dandriff shampoo, veggi oil, garlic powder, and chemical from the pharmacy. and after a few weeks it starts itching again, but i don't actually SEE the lice, i just see what i think are the lice eggs-which are small and white in the shape of a teardrop. and it doesn't itch all over just in a few places such as in the top right side or down my part.it feels like a little vibration, and dosn't stop. and also my whole head itches really bad after a wear a helment or sweat. I have sprayed the couches and my mattress and washed my sheets and clothes. is it lice or not??? HELP!!! thanx

I always had blackheads, but recentley they are really bad and noticable. There are loads on my nose and my chin but ive now started getting them round the edge of my lips, very small ones. I drink quite a bit of water use clean and clear face wash and a blackhead scrubb and use oil of ulay moisturiser. I have used blackhead strips in the past which gets rid of them then they reappear. I also splash my face with cold water after washing. Please help.

Kind of a stupid question but I want to know if taking a shower in the morning versus taking a shower at night would affect acne? I take one at night and I break out all the time, but most of my friends take one in the morning ( or both ) and have little or no acne at all. I am on Tretinoin which is a gel for the acne I put on at night, and it takes 12 weeks to start working and its only been week 7 now and it has gone back and forth from good to bad.

But would frequent showers help? I am EXTREMELY desperate to get rid of this acne, and i've ALREADY BEEN TO THE DOCTORS SO DON'T SAY SEE THE DERMO, ALREADY DID IT

Eczema has resurfaced on my skin time and again, but this time it doesn't seem to want to go away. In the past, I have gone to a dermatologist or the nearest drugstore and the creams usually work. I know that I should probably go see my dermatologist, but I want that to be my last resort. Does anyone know of anything that works?

I am staying kind of white under my nails. You know when you push on your nail, you are supposed to be white then turn back to normal color. My skin is staying white unless I push the sides of my finger.

I have had this bump on my left buttcheek for about 3 months now .. I tried to pop it but it just won't. It doesn't hurt unless I sit on it, or try to pop it (really hard). This bump used to be really small, but it's sort of growing now, but really slowly. It's white in color and it sticks out like a pimple. What is this?
