View allI'm really concerned about these lines appearing near my shoulders and armpits on both sides. They've been there for almost a year and seem to be increasing over time. I'm worried because I don't know what they are or what's causing them. Can someone help me understand what this could be and suggest any remedies? I'd also like to know how I can prevent this from getting worse.

I'm 19 and dealing with acne. I'm wondering if it's safe for me to take CIPRODAC 500 as an antibiotic just once a day. Would that be okay for my skin, or is there something else I should consider? Just trying to figure out the best way to handle this.
Ciprodac 500, containing ciprofloxacin, is typically prescribed for bacterial infections, and while it may help with acne caused by bacterial overgrowth, it's essential to consult a dermatologist before taking it, as antibiotics can have side effects, and acne treatment usually involves topical retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, or hormonal therapies, and not necessarily oral antibiotics like ciprofloxacin.

I've had this pea-sized lump on my bikini line for almost two years now. It sometimes oozes pus, and while I've had similar ones before, they've never lasted this longusually just a week or so. This one feels hard and sometimes shrinks a lot, but then it puffs back up again. Should I be worried about it, and what could it possibly be?
It sounds like you may have a recurrent abscess in your bikini area. I recommend using an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin and applying it to the affected area twice a day after cleaning it with mild soap and water. You can also take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with any discomfort. If the lump does not improve or if you develop a fever, please seek medical attention for further evaluation and possible drainage of the abscess.
