Hi,

Thanks for your question on HCM


I do understand your pain and discomforts


As per your history is concerned let me clarify you in detail -:


1)As you had taken in the past Tritiva 5 mg tabs which is also given for acne but if you wish to take it once again it is upto you, in my opinion please take[benzoyl peroxide +clindamycin] cream once a day at bed time after washing your face.

2)you can think about a course of antibiotic like doxycycline

3)use oil free creams in skin

4)Put 3 tablespoons of plain yogurt in a mixing bowl. Make sure the yogurt is free from whey. Add 2 teaspoons of gram flour to the bowl. Finally, add 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder. It is recommended to use organic turmeric powder for the best results. Mix the contents of the bowl thoroughly until you get a smooth consistency.you can also add a little lemon juice to the paste. Mix it in thoroughly. Apply it on your face with a makeup brush for an even application. Allow it to dry completely, then scrub it off with your dampened fingers. Finally, rinse your face. You can use this turmeric mask once a week.


Hope that helps
