Dr John Anne asked:
Acne is a common skin disorder characterized by clogged pores and pimples. It is caused by overactive oil glands in the skin and an accumulation of oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria, which directs to inflammation in pores. It is a very common skin condition recognized by blackheads and whiteheads and pus-filled spots (pustules). It is easily recognized by the appearance of the spots and by their distribution on the face, neck, chest or back
Acne can grow for the first time in people in their late twenties or even the thirties. Acne can also be caused by taking extra hormones, in the form of using anabolic steroids (illegally used for body-building); corticosteroid medication; and some hormone cure.
Types of Acne:
Whiteheads: They are caused when a pore is completely blocked, trapping sebum (oil), bacteria, and dead skin cells, causing a white look on the surface
Blackheads: They are caused when a pore is incompletely blocked, allowing some of the trapped sebum (oil), bacteria, and dead skin cells to slowly drain to the surface
Papules: They are inflamed and red tender bumps with no head. Do not press a papule. This will make acne more severe.
Pustules: A pustule is just like whitehead, but is inflamed, and looks like a red circle with a white or yellow center.
