Beauty Tips For Body Care
I'm going to try to explain my situation as good as I can and hope it's enough to get someone on here to help me. I'm really not trying to be melodramatic but my skin issues are really getting to me and the two dermatologists that I've seen both just handed me prescriptions for antibiotics that ended up doing nothing for me.My number one issue is that everything itches - all the time. It itches to the point that I cannot do things - specifically my scalp and balls (yes I know, sorry) itch to the point where I have to sit down and not move constantly to get it to stop because walking causes the itching to be unbearable. I use goldbond on them to give a small amount of itch relief. My scalp itches to the point where I'm losing my hair. My face and beard stubble itches constantly - the only slight relief being when I shave. This isn't a seasonal thing either - it happens year round.I also have bad acne on my face and on my body. I have terrible sebaceous filaments on my nose that have been there for 10 years (I'm 24) and I wake up to 3-5 whiteheads on my face every morning. My skin is flaky on my face especially around acne spots yet it becomes very oily throughout the day.I've taken every antibiotic with the exception of accutane. I've given fermented fish oil pills, multivitamins, and zinc a try. I dropped carbs completely out of my diet for a couple of months to see if that was the issue. I've tried every different acid and moisturizer on my skin to see if I would react well and haven't been successful.I have an AM and PM routine of Cerave's Foaming Facial Ceanser followed by Aveeno's Clear Complexion including the Stridex red facial wipes for exfoliation every other day during my PM rotuine for my face. I use Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Body Wash and Cerave's moisturizer with the pump for my acne ridden body. I use Nizoral shampoo and T-Gel with the T-Gel Conditioner every other day for my itchy scalp.I drink a ton of water everyday - I haven't had a soda or alcoholic drink in months. I sleep on a clean bedsheet or shirt every single night.And yet the only reason I'm typing this out at 2AM is because I cannot sleep due to the itching. I literally switched jobs so I could sit down more and I wouldn't have to move. I have seen zero results over this entire cycle of trying to care for my skin. Everything itches. It doesn't work. None of this shit works - I've spent an insane amount of money on different items and moisturizers to find myself here now typing this out as I itch my shitty scalp over and over and over and over again. I'm doing something wrong.If anyone out there can help me or throw in any suggestions as to where I go from here I would appreciate it more than you know. Again - the main thing is that everything itches; the horrible painful acne comes second to that. I'm a very positive person in my everyday life but this specific issue is getting so fucking old it's insane. I know of no other people my age still struggling to the level that I am with my skin.Sorry for the dramatic post - I appreciate you all. I'm going to do my best to sleep now.
