Question 1

for how long should i have vitacilina on my face for acne?

Accepted Answer

You shouldn't: Vitacilina is topical neomycin for diaper rash. It is a poor choice for acne. If topical benzoyl peroxide 5% 2x/day has not cleared you in two weeks, your personal physician can work with you to find something prescription-strength that will. Best wishes.

Question 4

my boyfriend sucked my nipples and the day after that i got a bump, is it going to disappear soon? should i put some "vitacilina" the mexican remedy?

Accepted Answer

Most likely: The lump is most likely due to the trauma of sucking and may be a hematoma (collection of blood from a broken blood vessel).
I would recommend that you apply cold compresses to the area for 15 minutes 3-4 times daily.
If it becomes red, hot, and painful, it may be due to a secondary infection and you should see your doctor for it.
