Acne Problem
Hello Doctor
I am 25 years. I am having acne issues since 3 months. It started with 1 or 2 pimples and now it has spread covering most of the part of my jawline and 1 pimple above my eyebrow and 2 or 3 on my cheeks.
I had acne when I was 16 years but after that its the first time I am facing this.
