Feline acne

[kuri]

Hello, my cat recently got diagnosed with feline acne and stomatitis. The vet gave her an antiobiitic shot and told me to use chlohexidine wipes on her chin. I started today but was wondering if wipes are really going to help or if the vet will have to do something else because it's looking pretty bad and she keeps pawing at her chin, making it bleed. Any advice is much appreciated.

Sort of a graphic pic of it.

The pads and antibiotic should do the trick. Also, if the vet did not mention it, if she has plastic dished, immediately change them to glass, stoneware or metal, and, until this clears up, scrub after every use with soap and HOT water. When I was battling a bout with feline acne, I rinsed my cat's dishes daily with boiling water, just to make sure.

Ok thank you so much!
