5 Easy Ways to Treat Acne |
by:
Antonio R. Howell, M.D. |
Acne is a localized inflammation of the skin
on any part of the body. Acne is virtually
universal during the teenage years and it
is often both embarrassing and upseting during
those development years.
Acne is seen in all races and genders.
Treatment and prevention of acne involves
understanding and avoiding the processes
that spur its development.
1. Limit or Avoid Acne Causing Drugs
For example it is know that certain drugs
(steroids, contraceptives, iodides, etc) can
induce acne.
Avoiding the offending drug would avoid
the acne problem.
2. Avoiding Occupational Hazards such as oils, chlorinated hydrocarbons, tars, etc. which are know to cause acne when they come
in contact with the skin.
3. Avoiding Wearing Heavy and
Occlusive Clothing which promotes
trapping and accumulation of oils and
sebaceous materials in pores that may
lead to follicular papules and inflammation,
especially in warm tropical climates.
4. Administration of Antibiotics to treat offending bacteria. It has been postulated that bacterial lipases of
Propionibacterium acnes break down sebaceous oils, liberating highly irritating fatty acids resulting in inflammation that leads to acne.
5. Administration of 13-cis-retinoic
acid a synthetic vitamin A derivative has
been used successfully in cases of sever acne.
Normal physiologic hormonal variations(gonadotropins and testoterone) may also cause acne.
In these case once the hormone levels stabilize the acne should disappear.
