I have these bumps on my cheek that i can™t seem to rid. It makes me really insecure and i wanted to know the name of this (is it acne what kind, etc) or a product i could use to help get rid of these. Any information is helpful, i could also post more pictures if needed. Thank u.
These "bumps" could be caused by fungus.
Fungal skin condition are usually caused by taking antibiotics and other meds, possibly including accutane.
I suggest you do the following -
1. Buy clotrimazole topical antifungal cream (often sold as Canesten - no prescription needed) and apply it to the areas with the bumps 2-3 times a day. Topical antifungal creams are totally safe.
2. Wash your hair in an antidandruff shampoo.
3. Do NOT apply any moisturisers or organic oils to the areas with the bumps. Keep your skin very dry. Wipe off sweat. Fungus loves moisture. And one type of fungus that causes acne FEEDS on organic oils.
4. Do NOT exfoliate your skin or use anything harsh on it.
Do you have dandruff or a white tongue ?
You may need a more targeted antifungal cream than clotrimazole, but start with clotrimazole cream.
Have you taken antibiotics or other meds ? If you have taken antibiotics, which antibiotics have you taken ?
I am happy to hear back from you.
