Acne Facts
Medications:
Some medications are known to cause acne. Some cortisones, few anti-tuberculosis drugs and some anti-epileptic drugs can cause acne. Chlorinated solvents can also cause occupational acne.
Food:
Acne is not caused by any food. If you think that certain foods makes your acne worse, stop eating that food after you consult your dermatologist. Till now, no conclusive evidence has established a relation between acne and food.
Frequent Washing:
Frequent washing of the acne-affected skin will not help. Instead, it can adversely affect it. Washing twice a day is enough. Contrary to popular belief, dirt does not cause acne. It is the sebaceous gland that gets closed and forms the acne because of changes in the body.
Oral Vitamin A:
Retinoids (derivatives of vitamin A) are used topically and orally to treat acne under medical supervision. Vitamin A does not treat acne. If you take excessive vitamin A, hoping that it will treat acne, your health may become worse. Remember that Vitamin A in excess quantity can have adverse effects on the body.
Hereditary:
Acne can be hereditary. If your parents had acne, you may be more prone to it.
Hormonal Changes:
Hormonal changes bring on acne. The hormone androgen is responsible for excess production of sebum. Females can have acne outbreaks during menstruation and pregnancy.
Acne-Like Conditions:
Some other conditions such as folliculitis may appear like acne. There are many other diseases that may look like acne. Some of them are rosacea, keratosis pilaris, perioral dermatitis, etc. Always visit a dermatologist instead of trying self-treatment.
