Acne, also known as acne, is a chronic disease of sebaceous glands in hair follicles with complicated pathogenesis. Western medicine usually thinks that the disorder of hormone secretion leads to excessive secretion of sebaceous glands, increased cell viscosity, abnormal discharge of keratin plugs, and bacterial infection caused by cell hypoxia, which can be divided into acne, papules, pustules, nodules, cysts, polymerization and so on.

Traditional Chinese medicine often divides acne into four categories according to its pathogenic reasons: wind-heat type of lung meridian, blood stasis type, damp-heat type of spleen and stomach, and hyperactivity type of liver and gallbladder.

1. Wind-heat syndrome of lung meridian: facial flushing, acne, fever, itching, pustules, thin yellow fur, red tongue, rapid pulse and other symptoms.

2. Damp-heat syndrome of spleen and stomach: the rash is red, swollen and itchy, often accompanied by symptoms such as poor stool, indigestion, abdominal distension, yellow greasy fur and slippery pulse.

3. Liver-qi stagnation syndrome: It is more common in women, and the rash appears repeatedly, which is obviously related to the menstrual cycle.

4, liver and kidney yin deficiency syndrome: more common in adults over 30 years old, rash color is not fresh, common complexion is dull, pigmentation, mental fatigue, thin white fur, slippery pulse and other symptoms.

It should be noted that some acne, such as fulminant acne and cystic acne, are mainly caused by decreased immunity of the body and need immediate medical treatment.

There are many reasons, the main inducing factors are: excessive sebum secretion and incomplete skin cleaning; Abnormal hormone secretion in the body; Poor liver and intestinal function; Changes in temperature; Vitamin A, B 1, B2 deficiency; Eat too much acidic and irritating food.

Therefore, the occurrence of acne has a lot to do with bad emotions such as anxiety and irritability, so you must relax. If the acne grows badly, you can ask a doctor for help.

In the treatment of acne, classification treatment is needed. At present, there are more effective and rapid clinical solutions, mainly including LED power blue light to kill acne bacilli combined with fruit acid activating skin, traditional Chinese medicine mask, acupoint catgut embedding, acne needle and other comprehensive treatments, which can achieve remarkable results.

Of course, on the other hand, combined with the causes of acne, I suggest you standardize your work and rest, adjust your diet and eat less irritating food. Avoid excessive mental stress, stay up late less, smoke less and drink less. Pay attention to deep cleaning when washing your face on weekdays. Facial cleanser should be mild and non-irritating, and skin care products should be refreshing and not greasy. There is also the need to do more moisturizing, oil control, and less oil-absorbing tissue. It is best to control washing your face twice a day.

After acne occurs, some people like to dig with their nails. Because there are a lot of bacteria hidden in fingernails, once the skin is dug through, the bacteria will take advantage of it and be infected on the basis of the original acne. Mild patients can be cured after treatment, while severe patients can not be cured repeatedly, and finally nodules, cysts and scars can be formed.

Wish: healthy and beautiful.
