Why Do I Have Large Cheek Acne?

Acne on cheeks, have many big spots

1 Answer
Dr. Deepak Jakhar

Answered on 23rd May '24

You have some large, bumpy areas on your face. Those are known as zits or pimples. Zits occur when the tiny holes in our skin, called pores, become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. This can make them look red and swollen or feel tender to the touch. A good way to get rid of acne is to wash your face gently with warm water and soap twice a day; never squeeze the spots because it can cause scars, or use products containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid which help clear up blackheads and whiteheads.

Eczema se­ems like your skin issue. It itche­s and has bumps full of fluid on red areas. Eczema ofte­n targets toes, fingers, and thighs. Cause­s include allergies, dryne­ss, and genes. Using mild soap, moisturizing daily, and avoiding harsh chemicals may he­lp manage eczema's symptoms.

Hi...i am having itchy rash outside my vagina and thighs , its been 2days

Female | 24

Fungal infections can lead to an itchy rash in the vaginal and thigh area. The warm and humid climate is an ideal growth environment for fungi. Keep the area dry and clean. You can use antifungal creams available over the counter to help clear it up. Moreover, wearing loose and breathable clothes is also important.

There is a sudden development of a black coloured lump on my lips . Can you please give me details of this

Male | 52

Several factors can cause black lumps. It's sometimes a self-resolving harmless blood blister that happens when you accidentally bite your lip or something more serious like skin cancer. Anyway, always be alert to the piece of the lump being uncomfortable, bloody, or growing in size. It's better to seek counseling from a physician to be cautious.

Why I have active pimples and acne only on the chin part

Female | 27

ACNE on CHIN is COMMON! Hormonal changes, STRESS, GENETICS are reasons... Bacteria, oil, dead skin cells clog pores... Hormonal acne often on CHIN, JAWLINE, NECK... Avoid touching face, WASH regularly, avoid oil-based products... Visit DERMATOLOGIST if needed!

I used to have pimples on my face 2 to 3 years ago but after using some medicine the pimples reduced but pigmentation acne has appeared on my face, how should I cure it.

Female | 21

This condition occurs when your skin produces excess pigment, resulting in dark spots. It often appears after a pimple has healed. To treat it, you can use products containing ingredients like vitamin C or retinol, which can help fade the dark spots over time. Remember to always apply sunscreen to protect your skin from further damage.

Iam getting pimples on my face iam using BETAMETHASONE VALERATE AND NEOMUCIN SKIN CREAM. BETNOVATE-N

Male | 14

You should think twice about using BETAMETHASONE VALERATE AND NEOMUCIN SKIN CREAM (BETNOVATE-N) for this. Although these ointments contain corticosteroids, which are known for reducing inflammation, they can exacerbate your acne in the long run because of steroid-induced rosacea or any other reason. Pores get blocked with oil, bacteria, and dead skin cells, forming pimples. To bring your skin back to normal, it would be wise to use a mild cleanser and an oil-free moisturizer. More importantly, avoid touching them at all costs.
