★★★☆☆BETTER BUT WITH SIDE EFFECTS
Yea, I have been suffering from dermatitis for about 8 years. I don't have symptoms every day just about every month or other month. I first noticed an outbreak when I was seventeen. I was going to a homecoming dance. I must have been nervous because my whole face broke out. I went to to a pharmacist and he advised me of cortisone. Then as I have gotten older it happens every time I have an important event to go to or when I am stressed. It happened at my brothers wedding, while I was the best man. I still remember that day. They really didn't include me in the pictures because they thought I was having an allergic reaction and isolated me. This really hurts my esteem, in addition to being 5'7 I have to deal with a red fxxking face. It's not fair. I tried everything from a pharmaseudical stand point.
I am finally deciding that I don't want to rely on a corporation to determine my health. I am trying ACV, besides the smell its wonderful. I have been using it for a day now and its dried out my rash. The rash feels tighter. When I rub the ACV it stings, but I know its working. I need to know an effective schedule to use the remedy. I am noticing a possible side effect. I am constipated.

★★★☆☆WORKED TEMPORARILY
I found this forum and decided to try the ACV. At first my POD got red and irritated and then it seemed to be clearing up, at least looking better. I used the ACV twice a day for about a week. It started looking worse again, so i finally went to see the Dr. He prescribed me topical Metronidazole Gel. I have been using it for 6 days now and i'm not seeing any sign of it clearing up. It's very aggravating and dry. I put a call into the Dr. to try and get tetracycline. I'm glad the ACV worked for some and wish it had worked for me. Good luck to everyone dealing with POD.

★★★☆☆WORKED TEMPORARILY
I have been using the ACV for 3 weeks now and everything was fine until a few days ago my chin started getting irritated again. It is now bad like it used to be. Could i be immune to the ACV? It was working so wonderfully, i was so excited and now i am back to square one. Anyone have any suggestions?
