Hey everyone, 

I've been getting these 'breakouts quite frequently. They just come up over night.

Growing up I never had bad skin- now i do.

I'm not on birth control, I haven't made an drastic changes to my diet.

I cleanse, I exfoliate, I exercise....

Initially, it started on my chin a few months ago- maybe a year. Now I have these bumps on and off (more frequently now) on my chin, near my eyes.

They're like under the skin, some come to the surface, others don't.

Some of them don't go away at all .

I don't know if the pictures capture what they are really like- there are so so many of them 

Nothing helps or works- i dont know what to do. I feel awful about myself....

I don't have health cover to see a doctor right now

Please if anyone has an idea what this is please let me know.

Thanks!

I think they are what some people call "closed comadones". If you look up closed comadones you might find a lot of helpful info on this site or reddit. I've struggled with these for years. It's when oil or skin debris get stuck under the skin, sometimes it gets inflamed and forms a pimple and sometimes they will linger as and eventually go away. Most people recommend bah or aha exfoliants. I know how you feel, hang in there.
