Okay, so I'm 18. Never had an issue with acne! Just the occasional bump or two on my face during my period. Soon after I started taking herbs, my face started to break out! Ugh, it was awful. But, I thought I'd gotten it under control with Clearasil. But now I've developed large, hard, painful acne that forms under the skin instead of on the surface of the skin like regular acne. I only have a couple of these bumps but they really suck. After doing some internet research, I've determined they are called nodules. I blame the herbs lol! I enjoy taking them too much to quit, so I'm going to a dermatologist to find a solution to get rid of the nodules. I read they can be caused by change in hormones which would make sense in my case. Has anyone else experienced something like this on herbs? :(
