Acne
cyst or cystic acne can be quite painful that often
leaves a scar. When a cyst or a sac forms in the lower
layer of the skin containing fluids or pus, it becomes
inflamed, forming lesions. This occurs when the contents
of a clogged pore oozes into the dermis, producing major
immune response (localized). Acne cyst treatment usually
comprises antibiotic therapy but when this fails,
retinoid Isotretinoin is often prescribed by
dermatologists as specific cure. Brand named Accutane,
it is an oral drug that is normally taken once or twice
a day, depending on the severity of the case. Acne
cyst treatment takes a fairly longer time, often
extending to 14 or 20 continuous weeks before any marked
improvement is noticed. And the fact is that, the use of
such drugs often causes side effects as well. So what do
you do? We shall see later.
Accutane Side Effects:
Although
Accutane is used in acne cyst treatment,
dermatologists sometimes feel diffident about
prescribing the drug because of its far reaching side
effects. Apart from symptoms of acute depression, the side effects
also include loss of concentration, aversion to food,
dryness of the mouth, nose, lips and the skin as also
irritation in the eyes. Sometimes it also affects night
vision, turning night driving rather hazardous,
nose-bleeding and atypical sensitivity to sunlight. What
is more, with some patients, there are unusual changes
occurring in the blood picture (marked increase in
triglycerides and cholesterol) and alteration of liver
functions.
In
case of women taking Accutane, the drug may cause
pre-natal defect in the fetus of a pregnant female. It
is not recommended for women who are already pregnant or
are in the process of getting
pregnant.
Find Out About Best Acne Treatments:
The
best course of acne cyst treatment involves a
holistic pattern of therapy that reaches the root of the
disease, providing a cure by treating this
multi-dimensional malaise by reacting with each
causative factor (this is important because acne is
quite complicated and it can be caused due to many
causes). Besides, it has no side effects. The word
"holistic" is consequential to "whole" where the entire
persona of the patient is taken into account instead of
his or her individual symptom or symptoms. This
obviously includes the person's body and psyche as also
his or her lifestyle which may need changes to create a
suitable treatment environ. This method of treatment
therefore, proves more realistic as well as effective
since it does not address itself to curing the symptoms
but aims at curing the person
wholly.
For
example, one of the primary causes of acne formation involves
misbalanced hormone that cannot control over production
of sebum (oil) under the skin. While conventional
treatment addresses at resettling the hormonal balance
by temporarily clearing the clogged pores, holistic
treatment restores the imbalance by activating the
body's normal cleansing agents like the kidneys, liver,
colon, lungs and the skin. As soon as the toxic debris
accumulated within the blood and lymphatic glands are
purged out of the system through these organs and the
used up hormones are expelled, the hormones start acting
normally, inducing the sebum glands to produce only that
much sebum that is required to keep the skin healthy.
Holistic acne cyst treatment therefore is the
only effective method of
treatment.
