Chronice acne

I'm a 33-year old female suffering from mild yet chronic acne since I was 11. I have blackheads on my nose, cheek and forehead, chin, and whiteheads on my chin, right below my lower lip. I also suffer from water retention and poor circulation in the legs.

Can anybody help me?

Thank you.

Dr. mahfooz:

I have been taking Sulfur 200 as per your directions for over two weeks, but there has been no change.

Any advice?

Thanks.

If no improvment then try the following:-

Asterias Rub. 30 (4 pills three times a day.

Sulphur 200 only once a week as an intercurrent remedy and not daily. No other medicine on the day Sulphur is taken. Take Sulphur 200 aftr taking bath or take bath after 2 hours of taking Sulphur.
 
Rajendra last decade
Update: I've been taking Sulphur 200 once a week for several weeks now, but the situation has not changed at all.

Any more suggestions?

Recap: my skin is oily, with tons of blackheads and some broken veins around the nose.

Thanks a lot.
