Sudden cystic acne on forehead only for 1.5 years now
Hi-I've been trying different things to combat my acne on my forehead for quite a while now and I'm hoping someone can help. I will try anything as I'm getting pretty frustrated and feel embarrassed.
Female, 25, Asian, 110lbs, 5ft. Used to have light cystic acne during high school.
Here's a timeline of what has happened:
1.5 years ago
-Started getting small bumps in center of forehead only
- Light inflammation in center of forehead only
6 months later
- small cluster of bumps grew and spread to entire forehead
- bumps never popped or came to a head unless infected
- 1-2 infected cysts during monthly cycle.
5 months later
- bumps became severly infected all over forehead
- lots of puss and huge cysts!
- began accupuncture treatment and took herb mix to help heal pimples
- 5-10 cysts during montly cycle.
4 months ago
- stopped accupuncture and pimples gradually decreased
- Bumps gone
Now
- still getting cysts during monthly cycle
- bumps are gone but the head of the cysts look like the same substance (small white sesame like things)
- cysts grow in clusters in a different area of forehead every month
- cysts don't have much puss now as before and does pop faster
Not taking any medecine at the moment though I took a lot of antibiotics as a child.
I also began getting re-occuring UTIs around a year ago, light infections that go away in 1 day with cranberry pills. Also became slightly lactose intolerant. I did have a severe sunburn and took birth control pills for 1 month before the bumps started.
Please also suggest something to take for the dark red scars..
Sorry this is SO LONG! Please help if you can!!!

Hi Faisal,
No, other than antibiotics, I've never taken any other drugs or been allergic to anything.
