Cysts/ Nodules acne
How do i get rid of it? I woke up with 4-5 on the side of my cheek. I hate it so much. It hurts and it's huge.
I had cysts before. Closer to my mouth area though. And it lasted for 3 years.[I actually still have some there :( ] So
am I going to have these little suckers for that long too ?
Will a hot towel press work? Ice cubes? Anything to make it go down in size or bring to a white head?
Is there any creams that are designed for cysts?
I can't go to the derm or anything..

I have this problem.
Sorry, but I don't know of any over the counter creams designed for cystic acne. You could try something with benzoyl peroxide to help dry out the cyst, but I'm not sure it would help that much.
I HIGHLY suggest you go to a dermatologist.
Ask your dermatologist for a cortisone shot. They go from the side of the cyst and give it a shot. It's slightly painful, but nothing unbearable. It feels swollen when you first get the shot, when in reality, it's not. The cyst will be DRASTICALLY reduced within a couple of days.
Have you ever considered Accutane? It's a potent prescription that damages the oil glands in your skin. However, it is a difficult drug to get prescribed. It is worth going through the trouble, though.
