Hi THere
Here are some real answers on skin conditions. Remedies at the bottom. Cleansing the body of toxins is the key. Especially a colon cleanse! Educate yourself on detoxifyng the blood.
Judyth Reichenberg-Ullman N.D. - "What is your skin trying to tell you? Often the skin is a metaphor for deeper issues and a way for your body to send up a red flag to warn you that all is not well underneath. When our skin is unhealthy it is usually a reflection of the internal state of our bodies, and is often a sign of poor elimination of toxins and waste products. Most of us are embarrassed by skin problems such as rashes, boils or acne, especially in places where others can see our imperfections. The skin is the body's first line of defense against the environment. It has to deal with the effects of weather, sun , cold, heat, dryness, humidity, scrapes, bumps, soaps, detergents, chemicals, perspiration and dirt of all kinds. It is a wonder that our skin stays healthy most of the time! We can help our skin deal with this onslaught by optimizing our general health and by protecting our skin from harsh environmental exposure. Western medicine generally treats skin eruptions with either antibiotics, cortisone, or antifungal preparations. These medicines may alleviate the skin problem temporarily, or occasionally for good, but do not address the source of the problem. Putting a lid on skin symptoms without getting to the root of the imbalance may even result in suppression, that means the imbalance may be driven deeper causing more serious health problems later without ever strengthening the underlying vital force of the person. Fortunately, naturopathic medicine offers a wide vareity of effective treatments for skin problems."
Judyth Reichenberg-Ullman N.D. - "Your skin is a reflection of how well your body is eliminating the toxins that build up on a daily basis. Chronic skin conditions such as acne, eczema and psoriasis stem from a combination of genetic factors, immune stress, dietary deficiencies or sensitivities, and the accumulation of toxins in the body. For our skin to be radiant and clear, it is very important that the other organs of elimination (kidneys, liver, lungs, and colon) are cleansing the body effectively. If not, the skin will be overtaxed, pores will become clogged, and eruptions of one sort or another will result. Here are a number of steps you can take to improve your body's overall elimination wtih specific emphasis on your skin."
Detoxification is a normal body process of eliminating or neutralizing toxins through the colon, liver, kidneys, lungs, lymph and skin. Fasting is the world's most ancient and natural healing mechanism. Fasting triggers a truly wondrous cleansing process that reaches right down to each and every cell and tissue in the body.

Natural Cures
1. Fruits and Vegetables for Acne: Carrot & spinach, celery & watercress, grapefruit juices are all useful to combat acne.
2. Unwholesome Foods: Acne, a prevalent problem among teen-aged boys would not be possible in our society if our foods were wholesome. A most sad and disgusting sight is the pus-filled pimples due to inner toxicity --- wastes trying desperately to escape through the face. This condition often turns a gentle face in the blossom of youth into a waste dump of pimples, pus and subsequent pock marks which can be prevented. The tons of acne medications and prescriptions sold annually act only on the effect of the harmful food, and not the cause of the disease, malnutrition. The traditional teenage meal, a grease burger, french fries and a milk shake or cola simply does not provide enough nourishment for anyone, let alone a boy going through puberty to adulthood. Our highly processed foods are devoid of hormones found in fresh fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts and seeds. Must do a colon cleanse to rid of all the toxins in the body, which eventually get into the blood and cause acne and all other diseases.
3. Cabbage: Apply a lotion of freshly prepared cabbage juice preceded, if desired, by the application of leaves. The eating of cabbage leaves or juice is also helpful.
4. Lemon Juice: Skin problems such as acne... will often respond to a treatment of lemon juice. For blackheads rub lemon juice over them each night.
5. Black Walnut: Externally, Black Walnut is nearly a miracle worker in cases of ...acne, dandruff, boils, itch, shingles, ringworm--we could go on, but you can see that you can use Black Walnut whenever a skin disorder appears! The tincture is an excellent first-aid remedy for wounds.
Best of health to you

You can't ever get rid of your acne completely until it decides to go away. Just wash your face with a good cleanser and scrub, and pay attention to the directions. Acne cream is also something you really want. A mask won't hurt either, even though it's sort of girly. I've heard that ProActiv works very well (I use Neutrogina), but if your acne is very bad, then you want to see your doctor before trying anything drastic. You want to use a product with benzoide peroxide for acne cream, and salicylic acid for scrubs and cleansers. I hope this helps your problem!

of course.
take it from someone who has chronic acne in my genes, yet a clear face:
1. wash your face with mild soap at least twice a day. mild as in, don't go spending $100 a month on something like proactiv. Try cleansers like Neutrogena acne wash. It won't dry out skin and you see results in 8 hours, not 3-4 weeks.
2. eating healthy is not connected to acne. meaning, scientists believe that chocolates and oils don't effect skin. well, this is only half true. chocolates and oils stimulate natural "steriods" kind of. and these mess with hormones, which cause acne. so try to eat healthier and drink tons of water.
3. don't pop all pimples. if a zit is huge, swollen and has come to a head, pop it, but those little ones are nothing but tiny bumps which can cause bd scars.
4. chill out. stress causes acne, so relax.
hope i helped and remember your a lot more critical of your face than other people are.

We took my son to a dermatologist for his. He has been prescribed Amnesteen (like Accutaine...). The dr says he will be on it for 5 months and in that time, most patients are usually cured from there on out except for an occasional pimple. It also helps restore the skin so that the scars go away and you end up with a nice and clear complexion. This is by prescription only and depending on your insurance, can be pricey... In my opinion, it's worth it. 5 months and then your DONE!
By the way, if you get on it, you'll need to keep lots of moisturizer (for sensitive skin and fragrance free) and chapstick, as it really dries you out.)
Best of luck! ; )

4. Anxiety increase them ,so take rest and be comfortable .
5.Take orally one capsule of (doxycycline 100 mg ounce a day for 3 months)
6.Use either( clindamycin lotion )or(oxinac lotion) locally ,two times per day
6. seeds of some plants as sunflower ,peanut,..etc can cause more acne if eaten.avoid them temporarily.

Dude, you can use Aveeno daily cleansing pads. It may sound like a girl thing, but i Sware it works. I had like really bad acne yesterday, and you can barley see any today. It works really good. It may not work as well for you, but I think it will. Good Luck.
