I've always had rubbish skin and have been on the pill for most of the last 20 years to keep it under control. Even so, I get blocked purees on my nose and chin and occasional really big hard spots on my chin and forehead. Whatever regime I've tried, the best I have managed to do is get do that the skin in between the spots looks good, iyswim, but still I suffer the curse of spots.
However... I am half way through a course of oral antibiotics for a chest infection and the effect on my skin has been radical: the big spots have disappeared in days rather than weeks, my nose isn't red and blotchy, my forehead isn't oily.
Coincidence? Or should I be talking to my doctor about taking antibiotics rather than the pill to manage my skin?
