Cystic acne sux balls

[Adogg4]

dammit I am about 2 weeks into a test prop/EQ cycle and today I noticed that one of those fucking acne boils is starting to form on my face I put some azelaic acid(finacea) on it and it is not noticeable yet but does anyone else get that type of acne? Had one of them once in high school that I wound up clearing up with accutane.

Right now I am using 5 grams of b-5 a day, and using topical azelaic acid as well, anything else that I should be doing? I would think there is some way to prevent these pieces of shit from coming up in the first place.

i get them on my back they are like boils deep in the skin and they fucking hurt and leave scars. the only thing that i have found to help somewhat is tazorac gel. but they really suck

 

[MJM]

Also try Accutane, did you normally get acne during your teen years?

 

[quedog123]

ive always gotten these cystic pimples my whole life i didnt get acne real bad during my teen years until i started cycling around 18 but only on the back and have batteled it on my back since i am only in my early 20's so maybe it will eventualy go away if it dont soon i think i will give accutane a shot sice these things are pretty heave duty

yeah I had gotten it last cycle for fist time at age 33. Yeah I got it bad on my triceps and shoulders to where it was causing scars and ruining t-shirts let alone was embarrassing to go in public with big zits.
I tried every cream and anti-biotics and helped only a little.

The bad thing was it dried my joints up as well and had to quit lifting for a few months while on em had many aches and pains come out from yrs of lifting and hard physical labor.

I did a 2 month cycle of accutane and cleared it right up. Tanning beds and sun helps a lot as well.

In my teens ( I am 20 now) I had mild acne for the most part except for every once in a while I would get one of those cystic acne boils sometimes on my cheeks sometimes above and between my eyes which as u can imagine sucked major ass. I went on accutane a few years back and havent got any acne since I stopped it, my skin is still very clear.

The only problem I have had with acne is these damn cystic pimples. My skin is still clear but I can feel it under the skin like it wants to come out I swear they r out to get me

But anyways I am thinking of cutting out the test prop and running the Equipoise by itself at 600mg/week. From what I understand test is harsher on the skin than EQ. Today was also my last day of a dbol kick start to my cycle, so maybe it will clear up now that I dropped the dbol.

Any advice would be appreciated

yeah that sucks I had one one my left cheek took forever to go away.
I got it bad on my tri's really deep. It looked like someone took a machine gun and shot me with bleeding on white shirts from it.

Unless you had cystic acne you really don't know how bad and painful it can be let alone mentally.

Bump the B-5 up to 10grams a day that should help

 

[Michael_H]

Acne.

Tanning bed 2x a week is a big help.

 

[big roid]

get tazorac gel it's the only topical stuff that works. Tanning kills the bacteria. Accutane stops the oil

accutane for 2 months

I had SEVERE acne growing up. I tried everything that was out there. Over the counter stuff, Retin-A, Persa Gel, Antibiotics, special soaps, NOTHING did the job. So I found a new dermatologist who prescribed Accutane. Cleared me up CONPLETELY! This was when Accutane wasn't prescribed too much. So it took some searching to find a doc who didn't find it " too dangerous " I stayed pretty much completely clear untill I started the sauce. Funny how you spend years hating acne more than the devil. But you go and give it to yourself, lol. ANYWAY, I try to not take any more harsh pills than I have to. And I was getting acne pretty rough on the back, shoulders, and a little on the face. I tried using those crappo body washes from Nuetrogena and the like. BLEH! Not only did they not work, they leave this sticky film on your body. I've found that Lever 2000 Antibacterial works better than any of those. I try to shower right after workouts or anything that gets me really sweaty. The BIGGEST help is tanning! BUT, I've found that the tanning bed doesn't do the job as well as the sun for some reason....? Try and lay out 3 or so times a week. I've found that 30mins on the front and 30mins on the back works really well. But you'll have to find the range that is best for your skin type. And you get a sexy tan on the side! =P It's hot and boring, but oh well. Some cats have had luck with the B-5. I've never tried it myself. But I have read up on it quite a bit.

great post bro.
I will have to get some of that soap. It is a pain in ass to get scripts now have to do bloodtests every month and very expensive drug Roche makes if no drug card.
I used Roche softgels and switched to much cheaper IP brand and was the real shit same exact sides with the tane.

Also get some finesteride - take 1mg a day - this limits conversion of test into DHT, which is the main culprit for acne and hair loss bro

Topical solutions and B-5 are useless. The only topical that works, is Tazorac Gel.

I would do a course of accutane and rid yourself of it forever.

fortunately the one that was starting went away I am going to get some tazorac gel though in addition to what I have been using in case it decides to come back thanks for the replies

Tazorac is more preventative that anything. It takes 2-3 weeks for your skin to adjust to it, but once it does you will be acne free. The shit is amazing. Expect some redness and dry skin at first.
