Hello! I stopped taking a medication called Prednisone about a week ago now. I was tapered from 40mg to 10mg within a few months. I have never had a breakout like this before, any acne I get is usually just a large pimple every once in a while. The worst I get is 4 large pimples. Never this. I haven’t changed any diet, skin care, or makeup brands. I haven’t changed anything besides the medication, except about 3 days ago I got the Hep-B vaccine (for my new Crohns meds I’ll be starting in a little bit), but this reaction started before that. So I don’t know :/. It was the first of 3 shots if that changes anything? Lol. It’s painful to touch and there’s puss filled bumps that look and act like acne. I’m planning on seeing a doctor if it gets worse, which it seems to be spreading. Any insight would be appreciated :). (Please ignore my face. I just got off work 😭) [link] [comments] |
