Baby acne
WHAT is neonatal or baby acne? Neonatal acne is a very common rash found on babys cheeks during the first several months of life. It is caused by the hormonal stimulation of glands in the cheeks. This rash is usually not present at birth. It usually appears between two and four weeks of age. Not all babies get it but a large number do. The acne will be most prominent when your baby is upset or overheated (increased blood flow to the skin), or when his skin is irritated. If his skin comes into contact with cloth laundered in harsh detergents, or becomes wet from saliva or milk that he has spit up, the condition may appear worse for several days. Common symptoms of baby acne Baby acne, as with all medical conditions, has some common symptoms. Usually the acne first appears to be a rash with small pimples that are red in appearance.
Skin discoloration common with arthritis drug
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Skin discoloration appears to be a common side effect of an antibiotic given to some people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a small study shows. The drug, called minocycline, is more commonly used to treat acne and certain other skin conditions. But some people with RA take minocycline to help control inflammation in their joints; those with a history of the blood infection sepsis are particularly likely to receive minocycline because some other RA drugs can be dangerous for them. Clinical trials indicate that minocycline carries fewer side effects than other drugs used to treat RA, the authors of the new study report in The Journal of Rheumatology. However, they add, the rates of side effects in the real world have been less clear. Patches of dark discoloration on the skin, known as hyperpigmentation, are one potential side effect of minocycline, which is also seen in 2.4 to 5.7 percent of acne patients.
