Hi,

As per your query you are having acne on the forehead with whiteheads which is getting filled with pus, it seems to be due to cystic acne as it is due to clogging of ducts of sebaceous glands and accumulation of bacteria, debris and sebum in that.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you wash your face 2-3 times a day with mild soap and warm water to prevent the accumulation of oil, dust and bacteria on your face. Apply vitamin E oil at night. If acne still persists consult a dermatologist for proper examination. The doctor may prescribe ointments containing benzoyl peroxide, azelaic acid or retinoids. Use water based products. Don't pick or touch acne.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
