Help !! How To Get Rid Of These Spots ?

[dieseldick]

i got badly sunburnt last week, my face and especially around lip area has small spots all over, upper lip must have had around 10-20 spots alone, i tried not to squeeze them but i squeezed a few. i have been applying pure alcohol, detol, Zovirax etc for a week. i have still got about 4 big spots, unsightly ugly things, 2 upper lip and 2 chin. i cannot squeeze them but when i tense my face i see a big yellowish pussy area under my skin, no heads on them, i want them away.

cant go to doctor with spots ,he would laugh at me. ive read up and googled , they could be blind spots or whatever.

can anyone advise what to do ?

[ummmm]

Go to the chemist and ask him/her.

I would leave them alone and let them heal on their own if it were me.

Does your doctors surgery have a practice nurse? She/he would be the one to see.

[lady-janine]

don't squeeze them as they may get infected or scar. either of the previous suggestions are very sensible.

[dieseldick]

practise nurse is an old battle axe like something from victorian times so no i cant see her , doc is not much better , hes constantly telling me to " man up "
lol ...i hate going to see him.

funny but not funny

Why don't you change your doctor Diesel ? He sounds awful.

Ummmm's suggestion is the best in the first instance, the pharmacist has a good knowledge of treatments for everyday stuff.

[maggiebee]

Are you registered at your local pharmacy for "minor ailments"? If so, the pharmacist will give you something to help clear these up.

ive been wondering for years if doctor and the centre nurse are husband and wife, very well suited the pair of them .

I wonder if antihistamines might help? Worth a try.

[dieseldick]

theyre going but taking time, using tea tree ointment , tea tree facial wash in morning and blitex also.

ive learnt my lesson to start to look after my skin more. anyone know a good face wash anti bac ? deep cleaning

When you ask a question on a website and 4 reasonable people at least suggest you go to a chemist then why don't you take their advice? If I had spots like this I'd not just play around with shop bought maybe solutions.

weekly steam and good astingent to close pores....Clinique or Clarins for me..or boots no7 ....

If these came on as a direct result of the sun and you don't usually get spots then they are most likely an allergic reaction which isn't the same as normal 'spots' and won't clear up with acne type products.. As patsy suggested then an antihistamine or hydrocortisone cream would be worth trying.
