I have quite serious acne and I m currently on my 4th week using Roaccutane . I have noticed a nasty cyst/ boil in my pubic area. It is filled with blood/puss and every time of popping it grows again and doesn t seem to be leaving me alone. Is it acne or could it be something more serious? I do seem to have spots around my pubic area but this seems more nasty than a spot?
Hi, Thanks for writing in. You are suffering from folliculitis and acne. The Roaccutane has nothing to do with it. Continue the Roaccutane. You can continue the treatment and apply tobramycin cream over the boil cyst. A course of oral antibiotics will be helpful. Visiting a dermatologist will allow proper evaluation of skin condition and prescription medicine. These will help in long term relief.  Hope this helps. Good luck!  Chat Doctor.
