Externally applied antibiotics such as erythromycin, clindamycin or tetracycline aim to kill the bacteria that are harbored in the blocked follicles. Whilst topical use of antibiotics is equally as effective as oral, this method avoids possible side effects of stomach upset or drug interactions (e.g. it will not affect the oral contraceptive pill), but may prove awkward to apply over larger areas than just the face alone.

Tetracycline, here under the name Tetralysal, is a common antibiotic used to fight acne

Clindamycin and erythromycin are the two most common of this type of acne treatment. The efficacy of these products, which are clinically equivalent, lies in the reduction of the P. acnes bacteria on the skin's surface and in the follicle. Although they are also naturally anti-inflammatory, they have no comedolytic effects, and thus do not help preexisting blemishes. Topical clindamycin is available in solution, gel, and lotion formulation; Topical erythromycin is available in cream, solution, gel, pledget and wipes. Topical erythromycin reduces lesions by 50%-60%. The addition of zinc to erythromycin ehances the effectiveness of the product, reducing blemishes even further.

If improvement with topical antibiotics starts to diminish, then the treatment should be temporarily discontinued. This will prevent a tolerance or resistance to the drug from developing.

Bottom line, hang in there, you will get past this! Sincere best wishes and good luck.

I have the same acne problem. buy a astringent from a department store for 5 dollars and put it on your back and chest and in a couple days it should go away. in the mean time do not scratch or pop them becuz it will make then worse and you can cover them up with coverup. if they are red you also can be visine for EYES yes EYES on then. if it takes away redness in eyes it works for pimples.

You can use concealer to conceal them, but if you want to get rid of it quick, go invest in some acne topical medication, or if you can't get your hands on it at the moment, just use toothpaste :P, it will minimize the size of the red bump.

Pop them all tonight, then wash them immediately, and then they should be gone by tomorrow. I have the same problem, and that works for me all the time.

My fiancé uses glycerin soap. It seems to dry them up rather quickly.. and if you use it often... they stay away. You can also use topical acne treatments with the soap.

Sun bathing or a sun lamp. Then make up to cover up the scab or scare untill it heals up.
