Recurrent deep inflammation of cysts repeatedly required and still requires surgical interventions and mechanical removal of the comedones, oral adminstration of methyl-prednisolone (4-40 mg/day Urbason; Hoechst Marion Roussel, Vienna, Austria), and analgesic drugs and antibiotics. There are two kinds of pimples: comedones, also known as blackheads, and other more unpleasant inflammations called papules, pustules or nodules, which range from a typical red pimple to a painful, pus-filled zit. The doctor may remove the patient's comedones during office visits. |
