Hello everyone. Recently after putting off doxakne which is a Doxycyline I have been getting these white head things. My skin has also been more oily.

Especially if I sweat I get these things fast. They don't hurt no do they itch.

Now before I get an appointment and go to a doctor I wanted the opinion of people in this forum which may have the same problem and already got an answer or a professionals in this field.

 

Recent examples are in the pictures.

In my own experience with antibiotics, they did nothing. And I tried them all, oral and topical.

As far as making you more oily, I haven't heard of this, so I'm wondering maybe you're also using a different product or applying something else? Not sure on that.

And as far as the whiteheads/bumps go, to be honest that also feels like something of a mystery. What has your doc said? Can you get on a telecall with him/her and see what they say?
