Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pimples on face with itching all over the body on face, back, legs, chest & stomach which is due to hormonal changes, clogged pores of salivary glands and due to dead skin. I would suggest you to wash your face with mild soap and cold water twice a day , exfoliate your face once a week. you should apply aloe vera gel and apply azelaic acid containing cream twice a day. You should use anti-acne medications such as Isotretinoin which offers any chance of long term cure and there are no chances of recurrence. Avoid any steroid based cream. If symptoms keeps on persisting visit dermatologist once and get it examined and go for micro-abrasion, dermabrasion and chemical peeling. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics course. Apply Clindamycin gel and Benzoyl peroxide containing gel over the pimple.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
