Acne

    The product of overactive oil glands in the skin can dry and harden, forming blackheads. This may produce a local bacterial infection and pimples. this condition primarily affects adolescents and can occur on almost any part of the body. Outbreaks generally appear on the face, chest and upper back.

Acne is common to those working in hostile chemical environments, people suffering from hormonal imbalances, or those under physical or emotional stress. Additional factors can include the use of oil-based cosmetics, the use of some prescription drugs, heredity (the condition seems to "run" in some families), and changes in the human body at the onset of puberty. Skin blemishes in individuals of all ages arise from improper nutrition, toxicity, and rapidly changing needs for hormonal regulation. Blemishes frequently occur in women during pregnancy. While proper hygiene, including at least twice daily washing of areas most prone to becoming affected, will not in itself prevent acne, it may help to reduce or limit the spreading nature inherent in most acne outbreaks.
