A member asked:
What do you advise if i'm seeking alternative medicine for- nodulocystic acne.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Adjunct only: Please forgive my frankness. Nodulocystic acne is a serious, chronic, non-lifestyle-related disease that (until it self-cures) cannot be managed without prescription-strength medication. Nowadays it is also a sign of poor self-care and will keep you from getting the job you want. Don't let superstition or slick advertising prevent you from getting cleared. If offered isotretinoin, go for it.
