Try not to pick.
Try coco butter as its a mousteriser and it has vitamin e so it helps with scars.
Or use plain vit E cream.

Id imagine the red stuff is blood, maybe the skin has been thinned by the spots so it can be seen just below the skin surface.
Dont worry about it.Its may take some time to heel.

Be patient. Time is the answer. In the meantime find some non-comedogenic cover makeup.

adrenaline- If it is really so bad, why don't you check with a dermatologist? There are treatments and prescriptions that can help the condition. Don't just suffer with it.

A little sun might help. This time of year in the northern hemisphere, unless you're at high altitude, the UV is so low it's pretty hard to get a bad sunburn. A little sun might help to even out the appearance.

Phoenix, she probably has a high deductible health plan like I do. The idea being making it so difficult to go to the doctor nobody will. Wink

It might be millia and not whiteheads.

I'm with Phoenix -- see a dermatologist if you can.

I've had some serious skin problems as an adult and seeing a dermatologist is the only thing that has helped.

DO NOT "EXPLOIT" THE SUNSHINE!

Sunscreen, baby, sunscreen.

A suntan is indication of skin damage! Your skin might look better but that is only because it is swollen and the darkness makes problems less noticable.

I have to disagree to some extent. Sunshine is necessary. Your body produces vitamin D from exposure to sunshine. And I prefer a little sun damage (i.e. tan), hate see-through skin.

Sunshine or supplements are necessary but sun damage is not!

I know where you're coming from cjhsa. I grew up in Texas. I love the look of suntans.

But, no joke, they can kill you.

I'd rather have see through skin than cadaver skin.

You know, I once knew someone much like you. He was very into classical music. His name was Johann but we called him John.

I recommended that he do what I did to take his mind off of superficial problems: take in an abandoned child.

Oh my gosh it will keep you so busy that you won't have time to worry about anything else.

You might want to start with something a bit easier: working at a homeless shelter or at the animal shelter, something where the responsiblitlty is not so overwhelming. Something where your down time doesn't require complex thought.

I don't know. Maybe you could join the military or something.

Of course, you might not be as simple as Johann and this might just be some tiny aspect of your life that you are trying to remedy. If so, see a doctor.

If not, grow up and quit changing your name.
