Answer 2

I too have suffer from Sebaceous Cysts on my face. There are a few things you can do to help them dry out. Don't pick at them the goo is contagious and can infect the surrounding skin (they will spread) Use a Salicylic or a tridclosin based facial cleanser. I use Clean and Clear Oil Free Foaming Facial Wash (Walmart).The next step is to use a moisturizer that will work on and under the skin. I recommend an Alpha Hydroxy acid based cream or lotion from an 8% to 14% solution. ( I use Aqua Glycolic Hand and Body Lotion 14%) (it can be bought through Amazon.com) some other stores carry it but the price of 14.99 for a 6oz bottle is the least I have paid for it. The other product is a cover-up make up to help dry them out. It is called Adult Acnomel. It is a sulpher based skin colored agent that will take the redness out of the abscess as it heals. It cost $10.00 for a 1oz tube but it works wonders. It can be bought at most national chane drug stores. I am 44 yrs old and have suffered with this since I was 8 or 9 yrs old. Now my daughter suffers from it also as this can be hereditary. She has had no major outbreaks since she started using my facial products to control her cysts. Hormones play a great role in this problem so if you are young the problems hopefully will go away with time and age. Good Luck I hope this helps you

Answer 3

Go see a dermatologist, especially if you don't know what you have. Once you have been diagnosed, then you may can try over the counter products but I would use products from the doctor.

Answer 4

you have boils on your face???? That's what i got from your question, if so, you probably have a staph (staff) infection. Go to the doctor again, they can give you an anti-biotic to take that can get rid of it.
Staph (pronounced "staff") is medical quick speak for staphylococcus aureus bacteria. This pesky little bacterium is very common (many people have some living on their skin all the time), but when it enters the human body, usually through an open cut or break in the skin, it can cause infection and trouble anywhere in the body. Staph infections tend to be pus-producing. Common minor (or relatively minor) skin infections caused by staph include:

Folliculitis
Infections of hair follicles that cause itchy white pus-filled bumps on the skin (often where people shave or have irritations from skin rubbing against clothes)

Boils
Infections deeper within hair follicles that leave large, frequently red inflammations (often occur on the face or neck)

Sties
Infection of the follicle surrounding the eyelashes, causing a sore red bump in the eyelid

Impetigo
The infection kids often get around their mouths and noses that causes blisters and red scabby skin

Abscesses
Infection characterized by pus and swelling that can occur in the skin and in any other organ.

Staph infection is also the leading culprit behind cases of food poisoning, and can be to blame for larger life threatening conditions, such as Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS), pneumonia, bone infections (osteomyelitis), mastitis in nursing mothers, endocarditis (infection of the inside of the heart), and bacteremia (blood infection). People who are otherwise healthy typically do not usually become severely ill from staph infections, but those at special risk, who have weakened immune systems, include:

* persons with chronic illnesses, such as diabetes, cancer, lung disease, kidney disease, or HIV/AIDS
* people with various skin conditions
* the elderly
* newborns
* people recovering from major surgery
* injection drug users (especially those who reuse needles)
* people whose immune systems are weakened due to steroid use, radiation therapy, cancer treatment, immunosuppressive medications
* women who are breastfeeding

Health care professionals can determine that staph (and not some other bacteria) is the cause of an infection by taking a culture (usually a swab from what looks like a giant Q-tip) from the infected site. Once staph has been diagnosed, the provider will prescribe antibiotics that are known to work on that specific strain of the bacteria. These antibiotics (usually either pills or creams applied to the infected body part) typically kill the bacteria and cure the infection within a week or two.

Hospitals are working to stamp out staph infections, in part because the majority of hospital patients fall into at least one "at-risk" category, but also because drug-resistant strains of staph (versions of the bacteria that aren't killed by one or more of the antibiotics that are commonly used to treat staph infections) are becoming an increasingly common threat. These drug-resistant strains of staph do not cause worse or different infections than non-resistant strains, but they can be much harder to treat because the most common (and easiest to use) antibiotics may not be effective. People with resistant staph infections may require hospitalization to receive antibiotics through an IV or by injection.

Because improper use of antibiotics can help produce resistance to drugs, making future infections much harder to treat, the American Medical Association recommends that patients:

* follow the directions for any prescription exactly
* take all of the medicine prescribed (even if one feels better after only a few days)
* never save old, leftover prescriptions for future use
* never take anyone else's prescription antibiotics

Other preventative measures are careful treatment of all skin conditions, including wound care after trauma or surgery, IV drug users taking precautions when injecting, and people with special risk factors being attentive to early symptoms of staph.
