I've got this pimple on my bum, and it's the third one already. The first two were really painful, and no tablets seemed to work on them, but they eventually went away. Now, this one's back, and the pain is awful. It's swelling more and more every day, and I can barely walk. Plus, my anus is hurting too. I've had bleeding twice, and it's painful when I'm sitting or using the bathroom. What should I do?

I've been noticing these pimples popping up on my lower back, especially on both sides around the waist, and they're turning into black spots. It's also happening on my upper arms. Should I be concerned about this? What could be causing it, and what can I do to make them go away?

That looks like keratosis pilaris? if it is so take bath twice daily and use good moisturizer two times a day that will work , if it still persists visit dermatologist topical lotions.

I've just started taking doxycycline and lactic acid bacillus capsules called doxy1 LDR FORTE for my acne, and I'm a bit unsure if this is the right treatment. Also, I'm curious about what the difference is between Doxy SL and doxy1 LDR FORTE. Can you help explain this?
