Treatment of acne: The typical treatment of your type of acne includes topical medications like epiduo or ziana or atralin. If the topicals are somewhat effective then oral antibiotics are added like solodyn (minocycline) or doryx.

Use drying agents: White bumps may be filled with either thick skin oil, and less likely they are filled with pus. Pus is made of dead white blood cells and are a sign of infection. Skin oil, sebum, is thick oil that has clogged the pores. In either case, keep the skin clean and dry, avoid moisturizers and lotions, and purchase acne medications, like benzoyl peroxide or retinoids.
