Skin Acne
Okay we’ve all probably had our fair share of skin problems, spots, skin acne, red patches and the list goes on. According to leading health experts most of us don’t even know that we have skin problems until later on when they are much more visible and harder to treat.
Skin acne is a common problem.
1: Causes & Description:
• Inflammation of skin because of infection
• Sebum (oil) created by our glands joins forces with dead skin and blocks the hair follicles. This basically allows for oil to build up beneath our skin until spots erupt.
• Normally occurs on the face, but can also occur on chest and back
• Can be started due to: Stress; Bacteria; Excessive Scratching; Hormonal related
2: Skin Acne Treatments:
• Dermatologist: (may need to be referred by Doctor) He / she may prescribe you with antibiotics that will reduce Acne. But remember that your body may become immune to the antibiotics and the acne that returns after may be stronger
• Foods / vitamins containing vitamin A are known to reduce oil on the skin. There are also some medication that have high levels of Vitamin A (ask Dermatologist)
Home Remedies:
• Cleanse face on a regular basis to take away any dead skin. There are special acne related cleansers around that are built specifically for the condition (examples include: Zeno)
• Most likely to be stress related, so get to the route. Yoga can help and deep breathing exercises
If you do have skin acne, don’t let it get to you. In the majority of cases it is just a short term problem and if treated correctly can be reduced and wiped out.
