Beauty Tips For Body Care
Hey people!I'm feeling pretty excited right now because I just came across a skin condition called Pityrosporum folliculitis and I'm almost positive I have it!Yeah it sounds weird to get excited over but at least now things make sense. So around 3 months ago my dermatologist prescribed me 0.1% Differin and some oral antibiotics.Around 3 weeks ago I started breaking out horribly all across my forehead. Just small red tiny bumps with the occasional whitehead. I just assumed it was the effect of purging and that they were closed comedones coming to the surface (even though I never had an issue with my forehead before).Well I was just doing some research and came across this condition called Pityrosporum folliculitis. It's actually caused by a proliferation of yeast on the skin. It's caused by things like oral antibiotics, oily skin, sunscreen and stress. Ding ding ding!These are the culprits! I'm going to stop using the antibiotics until next week when I see my dermatologist. I'm so excited that this isn't just purging and I might actually have control over it.Here's a photo of my forehead. And here's some google image references.I hope this post helps anyone confused about whether they're purging or experiencing something else.EDIT: I've read how some people had their skin worsen after stopping the antibiotics. Not sure what to do now...
