Can someone tell me how people cure irritated red acne?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Scientific Rx: Home remedies will disappoint you. If topical benzoyl peroxide has not cleared you after two weeks, or you have acne on your trunk, get with your personal physician for prescription-strength rx. Acne is unrelated to lifestyle, diet (mostly) and hygiene and a serious personal and professional liability. Best wishes.
