What to do if pimples and itchiness appear on your face

When acne first appears on your face, your skin will feel itchy, which is usually caused by inflammation of the acne. The acne on people's faces is generally caused by the oil secreted by the facial skin clogging the pores and forming acne. This type of acne has very obvious harm to people's facial skin. If your face is itchy, you should first pay attention to keeping your face clean, and secondly you can use medication. So, what should you do if you have itchy pimples on your face?

Why do pimples itch? Itchy pimples indicate two things

The first thing is that your acne is inflamed. In the early stage of acne, the sebaceous glands secrete a large amount of oil, which causes the pores to be clogged and closed comedones to form. After the pores are clogged, those hateful anaerobic Propionibacterium acnes may breed and gradually become inflamed, forming inflammatory acne, which will itch. If no measures are taken, pustular acne may develop, which is when the acne marks or acne scars that everyone understands are most likely to form.

The second thing is that it is possible that you have not cleaned the surface of your skin well enough, allowing other bacteria to breed and cause your skin to become itchy.

First of all, if the pimples on your face are itchy, it means that bacteria are growing in our pores and blocking our pores. That is why we feel itchy. Therefore, when we clean our face, we must wash it thoroughly. When using facial cleansers, we must choose better ones, and then rub our face thoroughly. When washing our face, we must rinse it clean, about 2 to 3 times. This will ensure that there is no facial cleanser residue on the face. Naturally, the facial cleanser will not absorb bacteria and allow it to enter the pores, and it can also better clean out the bacteria in our pores.

What to do if acne itches?

1. Never squeeze pimples with your hands

Because acne is often itchy, many friends will scratch it with their hands, which causes bacteria on their hands to infect the acne wounds, eventually making the acne worse. So don't scratch acne with your hands to avoid infection and scarring.

At this time, you should first pay attention to cleansing. Clean your skin as soon as you get home from going out. Replace the cleaning product with a milder facial cleanser to avoid excessive cleansing. At the same time, you should strengthen hydration and moisturizing, use highly moisturizing skin care products, and avoid excessive dryness of the skin causing allergies.

Notice:

If allergy-like symptoms have appeared, such as itching and red rashes, remember not to use hot water or steaming your face to relieve the itching. Stop using whitening and rejuvenating skin care products, and instead use skin care products with soothing effects, such as essences, facial masks, moisturizing skin care products and keep your face clean.

In addition, some people suffer from allergies and half of their face becomes swollen after a good night's sleep. This is probably not because of the pillowcase material itself, but because you forgot to wash it. People will not forget to take a shower, but they neglect to change pillowcases, pillowcases, etc., which become habitats for microorganisms. Therefore, it is best to wash the bedding every one to two weeks and dry it in the sun. People with sensitive skin can also scald it with boiling water to enhance the "sterilization" effect.

Although brightly colored synthetic clothes look beautiful, chemical substances such as anti-wrinkle treatment agents, softening agents and fluorescent brighteners may be added during the production process, which can irritate the skin and cause allergies. It is recommended to choose loose-fitting cotton clothing that is breathable.

2. Sun protection should be safe

Strong ultraviolet rays and high temperatures can make sensitive skin restless, so it is important to wear sunscreen when going out. People with sensitive skin should be careful when choosing sunscreen and try to avoid using spray or gel sunscreen because these two types of products have weaker moisturizing properties. For sensitive skin, it is better to choose a mild physical sunscreen when going out, and always have a parasol ready.

Why do acne form?

Analysis: Hormonal disorders in the body (puberty, premenstrual syndrome, pregnancy, etc.) cause the sebaceous glands to secrete too much oil, sebum cannot flow normally, and skin pores are blocked; under the action of bacteria and mites, inflammation, protrusions, hardening, and then becoming acne. Acne-prone skin is infected and inflamed by various internal and external factors, which will cause further deterioration.

Why do acne recur?

——Unhealthy skin pores, forming "acne roots"

Root cause: The skin secretes a large amount of oil and secretions → If the pores are unhealthy at this time, the secretions are not fully excreted → The secretions are blocked and remain in the skin, infecting bacteria → The bacteria gradually increase, inflammation and suppuration occur, becoming the "root of acne" → Even if the acne bags are eliminated, new secretions will continue to block the pores, and the "root of acne" containing bacteria will continue to cause skin inflammation, abscesses, and new acne will grow.

Analyze the truth:

Usually, if we have improper diet, stay up late, too much stress, constipation, and getting angry, we will soon get acne. The other factors are just inducements. Improper diet, stress, and getting angry only cause the skin's secretions to increase exponentially. The fundamental reason lies in the health of the skin pores and whether they can successfully eliminate these oils, toxins and secretions.
