What is acne, and what causes it?

Acne is a common skin problem. It occurs when the pores of our skin become clogged with dead cells and bacteria. Acne mostly occurs on the face, neck, stomach, and shoulders. The main causes of acne include excessive oiliness of the skin, dirt, and stress. When the oil glands inside the skin produce excess sebum, the pores of our body become clogged, which leads to acne, etc. ![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbT6StN39JtpxTEbRtnfseuTcoWyodj1cR9ThSUVahViq/image.png) [source](https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2018/11/09/20/11/struggle-3805349_1280.jpg)

Cause of Acne

If our skin naturally produces too much oil, our pores become clogged, which causes acne to appear on our face. 1: When bacteria present on our skin enter our skin pores and cause infection, it causes acne. 3: When we consume too much fatty, fried foods, sugar, and junk food, it causes inflammation in our stomach. 3: When people use low-quality makeup, the pores of our body become clogged, and this blockage leads to acne. 4: When we do not wash our face properly and use a dirty pillowcase or handkerchief to apply it to our face, then germs etc. get on our face, which causes bacterial infection and a pimple starts appearing on our face. 5: Excessive heat or pollution can cause oiliness on our face, which can lead to acne. 6: Some medications also cause acne because some medications contain chemicals that affect our immune system.

What are the different types of acne?

1: Non Inflammatory Acne

These are mild cases that do not cause swelling or pain.

Blackhead

When our skin pores become clogged with oil and cells but remain open even after they are filled, they oxidize and turn black.

Whitehead

These are also formed due to the blockage of our body's pores, but their upper part is closed, which is why they appear to us as small white spots. ![ChatGPT Image Apr 1, 2025, 09_14_48 PM.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmaVsg4ibY3pcUE2TCbpgWF1kyNoB72Ltg1SEa35aBbi4R/ChatGPT%20Image%20Apr%201,%202025,%2009_14_48%20PM.png) CREATED BY ME FROM AI TOOL

2: Inflammatory Acne

This is a more severe form of acne in which we experience swelling, redness, and sometimes pain on our face or body.

Papules

These are small red bumps and are also painful, caused by irritation in the skin.

Pustules

These are similar to Pustules and contain yellow or white fluid, which indicates that these bumps are caused by an infection.

Nodules

These are hard, deep pimples that are caused by an infection deep within our skin. They are very painful and difficult to treat.
