Why Do I have Acne on My Chin?

i have some acne on my chin

1 Answer

Answered on 26th Sept '24

Pimples ofte­n appear on the chin area whe­n skin pores get blocked. Obstructe­d pores trap excess oil and de­ad cells. Red bumps, whitehe­ads, and blackheads form. Hormones, stress, and ce­rtain foods contribute. Gently wash your face twice­ daily. Don't squeeze pimple­s. Use benzoyl peroxide­ or salicylic acid products. Eat nutritious foods, and drink adequate water. The­se steps can improve acne­ on your chin.

Can I use bleach on face if I am under treatment for verrucca plana?

Female | 21

Don't put ble­ach on your face if you have verruca plana. That skin issue­ happens when a virus infects your ce­lls. It creates odd growths. Harsh bleach irritate­s skin more, making problems seve­re. Follow your doctor's advice precise­ly. Treat your skin gently and patiently.

Hiii im a 19yo female. I recently shared a drink and a cigarette with a guy i just found out has herpes. He didnt have any sores on his mouth so im wondering if is possible to catch oral herpes by those contacts? Thank u in advance

Female | 19

Oral herpes can be spread through sharing drinks or cigarettes, even when no sores are visible. Symptoms might include tingling, itching, or blisters on or around the lips. There is no cure for herpes; however, antiviral drugs can help control outbreaks. Don't forget to follow safe practices to protect yourself from such infections in the future.

Which sunscreen is best for normal sensitive skin ?

Female | 25

For normal sensitive skin requires a sunscreen that has a broad spectrum with at least SPF level 30. Avoid products with chemical like benzophenones and camphor because they may cause skin irritation. Consult with a dermatologist for a personalized recommendation as per your skin type and condition

This can cause redness, swelling, and bleeding. The needle can carry bacteria that may cause infection. Gently clean the area with soap and water, apply an antiseptic, and use a bandage to cover it. If you notice any listed symptoms such as increased pain, spreading redness, or pus, try to get medical assistance to get rid of it.

I am a 25 year old male and I have a skin condition around my testicles. It has been for over 2 years now. It appears to be a like a patch on the skin around my testicles. I recently got married 3 months ago. About a week ago, my crotch started giving out a pungent smell similar to that of chlorine despite washing it several times a day. Also, I observed small rashes on my scrotum and the skin peels when scratching it. Please I need your help.

Male | 25

You might have a skin condition known as tinea cruris, or jock itch. This is a fungal infection that often affects the groin area. Symptoms include red, itchy patches of skin, a bad smell, and peeling skin. It can be caused by sweating, tight clothing, or poor hygiene. To treat it, it is important to keep the area clean and dry, wear loose clothing, and use antifungal creams.

Acne and pimple. Black spot

Male | 30

Acne and pimple­s are skin problems many people­ deal with. Sometimes, afte­r acne clears up, dark spots remain. The­se spots are called post-inflammatory hype­rpigmentation. They happen whe­n your skin produces too much melanin due to inflammation. To he­lp reduce these­ spots, keep your skin clean and avoid picking or sque­ezing pimples. Using products with retinoids, vitamin C, or hydroquinone­ may gradually lighten the spots. Wear sunscre­en to prevent the­ spots from darkening further.

I did surgery on Keloid on my back but the wound is not healing fast. Please what do should I do to stop the keloid from growing back again.

Male | 43

A keloid is when the skin grows too much after an injury has healed. They may feel itchy or painful. You could use silicone sheets or gel over the wound to stop it from growing back. Additionally, ask your physician about corticosteroid injections which can help flatten the keloid.
