Question : I am a 50 y/o wf in pretty good health. No meds for anything except for Lexapro for Anxiety/Panic. I've been suffering for a couple years now with small "pimple-like" bumps on my buttocks. What can I do to get rid of them?

Brief Answer:
Take capsule doxycycline and benzoyl peroxide gel

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at Health Care Magic ..

If I was your treating doctor I would recommend you to take Capsule Doxycycline 100 mg once daily and apply Benzoyl peroxide 10 percent gel on the affected areas twice daily for at least 6-8 weeks.

These are prescription drugs and you need to see the doctor in person to get them.

Besides this avoid wearing tight occlusive clothes and wear cotton underwear.

Regards
Dr Asmeet
