Hi

Hoping that someone can help me, since Jan this year ive had a number of facial abscesses. The first one back in Jan i ended up in a&e and had to have it lanced. Since then they have been coming back in the same area on the face around the chin/mouth area, probably had about 5 or 6 since Jan. Ive been to a dermatologist but they cant seem to tell me whats causing the problem or how to prevent them coming back. Ive been on and off antibiotics all year and its really frustrating me now.

Can anyone recommend a different dermatologist in the Cork area that i can use my medical card at. I tried the Derm Clinic on College Road but they havent helped much.

Thanks guys.
