It seems before this post that the poster had been using it for 3 weeks. Imagine 3 weeks and problems are eliminated or alleviated, either way I think people who can access the 98% antibacterial manuka, should try it! It is said that lots of treatments work in 3's so perhaps after 3 weeks you should see results, but then stop eating it and only apply it on the problematic skin. Good luck this time!
