Hi guys,
I was wondering if some of you could help me figure out what I can do to stop my acne...
First of all, I am pretty sure I have some kind of fungal acne. I've had it for at least 5 years now. First it started of with countless tiny white bumps on my forehead which where there for a few years and would not disappear at all. Now, a few years later at 20 years my forehead is free but my cheeks, neck and jawline are full of pimples and closed comedones. Now I tried almost everything already....minus birth controll or accutane. I don't even want to know how much money I spend on creams, gels, topicals, facials and peelings at the derm in all these years. None helped. Then I read about fungal acne and now I am pretty sure that that is what I have. My pimples are always near hair follicules and itchy too. Also, I have many closed comedones that just don't go away, even if I pop them. And...after I bought some rosehip oil and used it all over my face a few times, I got even more closed comedones, but this time even on my neck, where I never had had any pimples before These haven't budged yet either, even after using AHA peelings (the ordinary one), topicals, supplements and so on. So now the only thing I feel like I haven't tried yet is an antifungal cream. I already tried H&S shampoo and a clotrimazole cream which both didn't help, so I was wondering that if one antifungal cream doesn't help, another one still could help? As long as it has another active ingredient? I am thinking about trying out a lamisil cream or a nizoral cream...is there a chance they will help better? I will try to add a picture for reference later...thanks for any help
Here are some pictures for reference... You cannot really see the closed comedones but they are there... sadly haha
Hi, I'm no expert or anything but my friend had acne that looked the same in the same spots on her face and after years she found out she had Helicobacter Pylori. She had a dosage of antibiotics and once it was out of her system her face cleared up. Again, I have no idea if your acne could be caused by the same thing but I think it's worth trying.
Good luck!
I had Helicobacter
and it makesholes in your gut.. lets toxins to spread in your system
it makes stomach acid alkaline and lets fungi to overgrow and spread in your system.. = ACNE from forehead back to your knees.. if no one help on time. Many tragic stories.. read about candida symptoms..I had brain fogs and pain and depressions and joints problems.. i felt i die..But I fight.. antibiotics destroy me.. but I have to destroy Helicobacter.
