Doctors, parents, people, etc. Always told me to avoid putting things like alcohol on my face because it would dry my skin out and open it up to infection and what they thought they were looking at WAS dry skin. But eventually I researched enough biology, pathology, and medicine and realized it was actually just a pathogen that I could kill WITH alcohol! So I basically did that for a while and fixed my problem forever! :) One of the hard lessons of life is that YOU have to advocate for yourself, very rarely will someone save you. Don't give up. The best and most passionate doctor I ever met, said "The best doctor is always YOU.". 😇 |

What were your treatments, what worked and then stopped, what did you change it too? This very well may be able to be healed just like a bacterial illness can be healed. Doctors don't care and completely suck in America 98% of the time. They just say, steroids (doesn't help fight infection, actually the opposite, but improves symptoms at first/for a long while.) time, blah blah blah. ive been using cremes, right now its skinoren. apparently its already a good solution but it does near to nothing at the moment. I was wondering if I should try and reach for Accutane but that is as widely discussed at the pill for women so id rather not by raspberrie; ; Report |

ive been researching, or trying to. the thing is my skin is kinda complicated apparently. my skin is slightly oily but that's probably because im black / mixed, so I very probably have mixed skin. I can never really find promising sources etc and especially because I live in a country (not USA) that is based on white skin. ive tried so much and nothing works. if I leave my skin alone it gets even worse.

Some creatures/pathogens live off of the oils in your skin. If you apply a cream with oil it will help at first sometimes because the pathogens will multiply in the creme first due to the extra food. But they they will make things worse for your skin because more of them will try to then eat the oils coming out of your skin naturally/burrow into your pores etc.
So try using alcohol and wiping it off with a clean disposable tissue once or twice a day. Regularly removing their food source may help if it's an oil based problem. Most doctors never realize that because they think it will dry the skin and lead to more invasion of pathogens, then they prescribe stuff that stops you fighting them off or makes more of the problem lol
