It is the bane of a persons existence. Everybody gets it;

everybody hates it. And once you have it, prepare to be

tormented, embarrassed and humiliated. Such a small bump, so

much at stake. So what is this little bundle of horror? What

else but the dreaded pimple!



A pimple, or acne as some people calls it, is a dreaded red,

swollen bump in the face. Nobody is spared from having it. Male

or female, American, Chinese or Puerto Rican, they all have

gotten it at some points of their lives and may even still have

it. It is like a universal language; it is like a right of

passage in a persons life. Acne is a result of the hormones

action on the skins oil glands (the sebaceous gland) which

leads to clogged pores and outbreak of lesions like pimples,

blemishes or acne. Acne commonly occurs in the neck, face, back,

shoulders and chest because the sebaceous glands are most

abundant in these locations. But the important question we

should be asking to be able to avoid this dreaded disease is,

What causes this pain in the neck called acne?



Unfortunately, the causes of acne cannot really be determined

(unless your parents or their parents are acne infested too then

theres a big, big chance youll be called acne face by your

peers and classmates) thus the acne myths are born! These myths

claim to be the cause of acne. We shall enumerate them here.



Acne Myth Number 1



Acne is caused by not washing your face often and not scrubbing

it hard enough. Many believed that acne is caused by dirt and

dust in the face and by washing your face two-three even four

times a day or even by scrubbing your face hard can prevent

acne. Wrong, wrong, wrong! It is true that dirt and dust is

unsightly to the face and washing the face is the way to

eradicate them but washing often can actually irritate the skin

more. Washing should not be done more than twice a day. More

than twice is enough to strip the face of its natural oils

making it dry. Also, scrubbing can cause inflammations. Washing

the face should be done as gently as possible with the gentlest

facial scrub.



Acne Myth Number 2



Improper Diet can cause acne. Certain foods that are oily like

French fries and junk food can cause acne to erupt in our face.

But scientific studies have not discovered any connection

between these two. So this means that food does not cause acne.

Though a proper and healthy diet is always good for our system,

eating like a pig wont make pimples a permanent resident in

your face. So feel free to eat your favorite Lays, French fries

and chocolates anytime.



Acne Myth Number 3



When youre stressed acne tends to pop on your face like popcorn

pops from a kernel. Not true. Stress is a part of our daily

lives and believe it or not it is not a contributing factor to

the acne residing in your face. Only severe stress treated by

the doctor MAY cause acne to erupt only as a side effect of the

drugs a person may be taking. If this is the case, consult your

doctor immediately.
