Red pimples may be acne or folliculitis. Different creams can be used for different conditions, and the creams involved include antibiotics, antifungals, and retinoids.
1. Acne: Adapalene gel, retinoic acid cream, tazarotene cream and other retinoids can be applied to acne, which have the effect of anti-inflammatory and dissolving pimples, but are prohibited for those who are allergic to these drugs. Clindamycin, erythromycin ointment and other antibiotic drugs can also be applied, but there may be rashes and other adverse reactions.
2. Folliculitis: If it is caused by bacterial infection, you need to use antibiotics such as mupirocin ointment and fusidic acid cream. If it is caused by fungal infection, you need to use miconazole cream, ketoconazole ointment and other drugs to apply.
Patients should go to the dermatology department in a timely manner, first to clarify the cause of the disease, and then strictly comply with the doctor’s instructions for treatment, do not apply drugs indiscriminately.
