Re: skin question

Cystic acne is often hard, deeper under the skin, and takes much, much longer to go away - regular topical meds do not help. Of course it could be something else, but that's the first thing that comes to mind.

Does your face hurt? (Not trying to be funny) If it feels sore it also could be cellulitis.

Re: skin question

I think that is called milia (sp?) I had one or two and I think eventually it will go away, at least mine did, I am not sure what causes them though.
