A member asked:

Is it normal for zits to bleed? and how do i get rid of zits that just don't go away even though i'm 24? always have 1-3 on my face.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Benzoyl peroxide: Topical benzoyl peroxide as tolerated -- twice a day if you can -- should keep them at bay after a few weeks. I'm more concerned about the anemia you describe -- i hope your physician has found the cause and recommended treatment. Best wishes.
