Sick of My Skin!

Anyone has any ideas or products that work well for acne? I had a lot of skin trouble after my first child and ended up having to spend a fortune to see a dermatologist. Now that the 2nd has come along so has my acne. I am planning on breastfeeding for as long as I can and the products the dermatologist had me on I can not use. I would like to find a product that works and is not too harsh on the skin as the prescription products. Any ideas?

Rash Around Mouth That Looks like Impetigo but Isn't

"Skin Tag on 11 Yr Old"

My 11 yr old has a skin tag on his neck and has recently started asking if he could have it removed. His Dr looked at it and did tell us that he could burn it off.
