I am 37 and suffering with cystic acne for the first time, following the birth of my baby last Nov.
A few months ago I had what I thought was a pimple on my cheek and squeezed it... this was a bad idea as it wasn't a pimple and squeezing it turned it into a big lump ( its definitely more defined in real life than pic shows)
It has never come to a head and I can see it's white under the skin when I stretch it. It's not going away and I wondered what it was and how to get rid of it? Can I have it lanced?
The rest of the acne came up just after and is red, inflamed sore right now. I'm breastfeeding so can't take anything - what is the most natural thing to deal with it please? My diet is pretty clean and I'm washing my face twice a day. I need to find a moisturiser tho as my skin is dry & eczema prone. I'm in UK, you recommendations please?
