To prevent pimples, eat fresh fruits, green vegetables, drinking plenty of water should be an essential part of your routine and intake of oily fried foods, an excess of sugar-salt should be avoided. Don't peal pimples, as they tend to leave scars. Stop using soap on face. Instead take a spoon of milk, add a pinch of turmeric (haldi). Mix n apply on face with the help of cotton. Leave for a few minutes then wash off. It?s a good cleanser. If skin is dry then apply moisturizer like coconut oil. For swollen pimples, gently apply ice for a minute or so. Just don't keep the ice on so long that it irritates your skin. Tea tree oil can kill bacteria. Some people use it to treat minor skin irritations, including acne. There isn't much research on how effective it is, but tea tree oil is safe to put directly on your skin in a diluted form. Try it on a small area first to make sure you don't have an allergic reaction. Simple honey mask--before applying this mask, rinse your face with warm water to open up pores.

Good morning lybrate-user. I would advise you to not self medicate. Minoz (containing minocycline) is an antibiotic used for acne among other purposes and careful consideration on the part of the doctor is mandatory before prescription. Your acne will undoubtedly require topical medications as well, so a proper treatment regimen is a must. The best and safest way to proceed would to have yourself assessed by a qualified dermatologist. While an in person consultation with a dermatologist is always preferred, in your case, I suppose an online consultation will have to do considering your circumstances. In the meantime, if your acne is quite severe, you can try and make some dietary changes to see if they help with your breakouts. Avoid junk/processed food. Replace high glycemic index food with low glycemic index options and you may try avoiding milk (some studies have shown it triggers acne, especially skim milk) to see if it makes a difference. Get plenty of sleep and exercise and avoid undue stress as well. If you also have any issues with your menstrual cycles, it needs to be addressed as well as it could be related.
