I've had clear skin for a long time, but recently, I had a bad allergic reaction while I was in another state, and now I'm getting these small white pus-filled bumps on my face. They appear and disappear, but leave these flesh-colored bumps that have been sticking around. It's been almost a year like this, and I've tried doxycycline and various acne medications with no success. I even used Proactiv years ago, and it worked then, but now it just irritates my skin. What do you think could be causing this and is there anything else I can try to get rid of these bumps?

I'm currently on acutret tablets for my pimples and I've been following my doctor's advice by not using any other creams except what he prescribed. I had an office event and used a foundation just for that day, and now I'm noticing more pimples. I'm getting nervous because my wedding is in December. Could using that other cream just once really cause this increase in pimples? Can you help me understand what's happening?

Applying foundation cream while using Acutret tablets may have clogged pores, triggered hormonal fluctuations, or irritated your skin, leading to increased pimples; however, it's essential to consult your doctor or dermatologist to determine the exact cause and adjust your skincare routine to ensure your skin clears up before your wedding in December.
