It worked for a while and then I had another bad flare-up. I stumbled across something in CVS called Prosacea -- which is a homeopathic remedy for rosacea. It isn't rosacea but the label said it worked on red bumps so I decided to give it a try and it worked very well. The active ingredient is sulfur.

Sulfur? Does that make your head smell like poop?

But I've found that rotating between the benzoyl peroxide/cortisone regimen and the Prosacea has worked very well -- so far. When one doesn't work the other usually does.

I know. It's almost like we're fighting the borg in the way they can adapt to everything we throw at them.

Yes, you may attract some flies but that's just the price you'll have to pay. ::)

I tend to have this problem when i get really stressed. I agree with keeping the dome clean, I use alcohol wipes through out the day and hydrogen peroxide right after the shave (also great if you happen to nick yourself) and sea breeze is a God send
Rusty Shackleford:
I was being really aggressive with it around the time I started this thread with peroxide, alcohol (not beer), Clearasyl, and general cleaning and what the heck, alcohol (beer :) ) too. It finally went away. I don't know why. It certainly wasn't stress because if it was I should look like I have a case of the Chicken Pox right now.
