Hi Mr. lybrate-user, As you have been administered Doxy the bacterial infection should have healed provided the dosage was right! You can send me pics of the region Probably it might be some sort of fungal infection or dryness owing to soap usage etc. As you have been exposing yourself to CSWs fungal infection too should be ruled out. I would like to see the lesions before any further comments. For more details do consult me online.

This medicine may cause increased pressure inside the head (intracranial hypertension). This is more likely to occur in women of childbearing age who are overweight or have a history of intracranial hypertension. Tell your doctor right away if you have a headache, blurred vision, or changes in vision.

Acne is a skin condition that occurs when your hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells. It causes whiteheads, blackheads or pimples. These factors can trigger or aggravate acne: hormones, certain medications, diet, stress.
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.more
