What is acne?
There is a gland called the sebaceous gland under your skin that produces oil known as sebum. When this oil comes out in excess form and the dead cells clog the oil the skin starts shredding. Bacteria and dirt deposition starts on this clog forming a bump-like structure or black pores known as acne.
Why acne is seen more in teenagers than adults?
Acne or pimples are seen more in teenagers than in adults. This is because teenagers basically face a phase called puberty. When puberty strikes in teenagers the hormones get triggered and the oil (sebum) production increases. And when this oil production increases it causes acne.
How to prevent Acne? Causes and Remedies (In teenagers)
1. Sweat
Whenever you are sweating due to high workout and heavy physical activities your pores become very sensitive. Do not touch those pores with dirty hands or towels. This is entirely wrong. You should always use a clean towel. After 10-15 minutes use facewash. This will help you to fight against acne.
2. Indigestion
Indigestion is one of the most important reasons for acne. Always try to follow these steps
- Finish your food before 2 hours before sleeping.
- Eat only when you are hungry.
3. Avoid milk products
You should avoid dairy products such as milk, cheese, ghee, butter as they increase the body heat and rate of oil production in your body.
4. Avoid smoking
Smoking is another great cause of acne. Regular smoking enlarges your pores and also acts as a triggering factor for your oil production hormone (sebum).
5. Diet and water
Diet is a very important factor. Avoid food that increases your body heat. Lack of water in the body also triggers acne. You should drink 4-5 liters of water every day because the more the presence of water in the body the less is the heat production in the body.
