B12 jabs and acne

I’ve had low b12 and had the 6 loading dose jabs. I’m relieved to be feeling much better but have come out in acne spots! Happy to take the hit as I feel so much more like myself but curious to know if this is a thing with B12 jabs / supplementation. It won’t stop me taking my daily vitamins tho!

It's not something I have experienced with b12 injections.

It is, yes. Very common with B12 injections, think it's something to do with bacteria on the skin changing

I had a horrendous time with acne when I had the injections. Dr dismissed me over it saying it wasn't that. My chin and jawline was absolutely covered.

Thanks! I’m just pleased to have the energy - hopefully it’ll soon settle down.

Very common as the bacteria naturally in the skin undergoes changes.
It will get better and your skin will eventually be much better than before.
Don't squeeze or interfere with them except to keep your skin moist.
