Repeated growth of hard pimples on the jaw and lymphatic area is considered to be related to cystic acne or nodular acne, which can be relieved through the use of antimicrobials, glucocorticosteroids and physical therapy.
1. Antibacterial drugs: Topical antibacterial drugs such as benzoyl peroxide, erythromycin, clindamycin, fusidic acid, etc. can be used to control local infections.
2. Glucocorticosteroids: If necessary, glucocorticosteroids can be injected into the lesions, such as prednisone, dexamethasone and so on, to promote the acne to subside.
3. Physical therapy: Physical therapy such as red and blue light irradiation can also be taken to destroy Propionibacterium acnes, reduce the local inflammatory reaction and improve the local acne symptoms.
It is recommended that patients with recurring hardened acne on the jaw and lymphatic area should go to the hospital and be treated under the guidance of a doctor, rather than blindly using medication on their own.
