Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor, Thickening of blood and development of acne are most probably unrelated to eacChatDoctorplete blood counts and red cell parameters are required to look for polycythemia. Polycythemia is characterized by raised red blood cells and high hemoglobin. Acne need to be managed conservatively with antibiotics and sufficient time should be given to allow the acne to heal. Thanks and take care Chat Doctor.
