Skin rash and acne are both
very common and emotionally
damaging. The sad part is
that they are not so easily
treated thus undeniably creating
fear, low self-esteem especially
to teenagers who are just
starting to explore what the
world has to offer them. Teens
are the ready targets for
acne and zits because their
rapidly changing hormones
trigger an overproduction
of sebum. They have to understand
that most acne, pimples (zits),
blackheads and skin eruptions
are caused by bacterial infection
in their skin oil glands.
It is often due to the overproduction
of oils during a hormonal
imbalance that produces such
skin problems.
Zits are commonly caused by
normal hormonal fluctuations
in the body. They are not
found on the face, they are
most common in body areas
like back, scalp and neck.
Evidently, they make you uncomfortable
as they sometimes hurt but
if you don't let them disappear
on their own, they tend to
end up with scars. You are
sometimes tempted to popping,
picking at or drying out obviously
appearing zits only to make
them more irritating that
makes things worse and can
cause even more to sprout
out. The first thing you do
as pimples appear is to pop
them only to leave permanent
scars. It is however the scars
that you wanted to prevent,
so it is important that you
never pop or squeeze pimples
yourself.
No matter how many nasty zits
you pop, they tend to keep
coming back. Since appearance
is important to individuals,
they easily think of medicines
for their zits to be gone
in the shortest time possible.
They immediately think that
they need some penetrating
bacteriacide. However, some
of these bacteriacide tend
to be causing more and even
get worst skin problem than
they must be curing you.
Unfortunately, there are lots
of myths about what are the
reasons behind why pimples
pop up. Despite your friends
and mom say that chocolates,
pizza or French fries causes
the pimples to pop up, you
have to know that you don't
just get pimples from what
you eat, unless you are allergic
to something and then you
get hives not really zits.
Actually, you do not get zits
because you eat greasy food
or too many sweets or because
of poor hygiene alone. As
individuals tend to assume
on many probable causes of
their zits and acne, it is
still best that you ask your
dermatologist about your skin
condition and clearly your
doctor will let you understand
what are its probable causes
and the preventive measures
that you could do to prevent
you from getting more of your
zits and other acne related
problems although not to totally
get rid of them.
Moreover, persistent acne
consisting of 4 or more zits
at one time along with redness,
discomfort and slow healing
cycles, requires checking
out by a skin doctor. You
have to let your dermatologist
do the proper technique as
they have the sterile instruments
used for the popping. The
doctor can give you preventive
measures and medicines concerning
your zits and acne and eventually
you will grow out of them.
Most importantly, zits do
not make you ugly or gross
and everyone gets zits so
you don't have to be ashamed
or have fear or even have
low self-esteem just because
you have acne or zits. The
distressing truth is that
zits and acne will persist
well into adulthood so you
better get used to them from
the start they appear on your
skin.
