What to do with the hard lumps left by the abscess

In daily life, many people have many bad living habits and unhealthy eating habits, and also face a lot of pressure, which will cause extreme mental tension, endocrine disorders and metabolic blockages. Under such circumstances, pustules will grow in certain parts of the body. There are many types of pustules, and seasonal acne is one of the more common ones.

Nodular acne causes

Such as unreasonable diet structure, mental stress, visceral dysfunction, poor living or working environment, lack of certain trace elements, genetic factors, constipation, etc. But the main cause is the development and maturity of puberty, the increase of male hormone level in the body, which stimulates the sebum and epithelial cells of hair follicles to shed, aggregate into yellow-white substance and embolism in the hair, forming current acne.

Identifying Nodular Acne

The symptoms of nodular acne are that on the basis of pustules, a large amount of keratinized substances, sebum and pus cells accumulate in the hair follicles, which destroy the hair follicles and sebum structure and form red or light-colored nodules that are higher than the skin surface or under the skin. These nodules are hard and painful when pressed. If not treated in time, permanent scars can easily occur.

In addition, after the formation of nodules, there are pus, bacterial residues, mite corpses, sebaceous glands and keratinized substances in the sebum of the hair follicles, as well as infectious and inflammatory infiltration. It feels like a lump when touched, and pus, blood or bean curd-like substances will overflow when squeezed. These are all symptoms of nodular acne.

Nodular acne treatment

1. Clean your skin.

Patients with nodular acne have oily skin, but oil-control facial cleansers are not recommended. The more you wash with oil-control facial cleansers, the oilier the skin becomes. Here we recommend a mild hydrating facial cleanser. When washing your face, use the fingertips of both hands to gently massage along the skin grain for 3-5 minutes to increase the cleansing power of the facial cleanser. Then wash it with warm or lukewarm water to thoroughly remove dust and grease on the skin that day. If there is a lot of dust and oil on the face, rinse it with warm water in time. Generally, it is best to wash your face 2-3 times a day.

2. Unclog pores.

When nodular acne appears on the face, fill a basin with hot water, place the face after washing with facial cleanser or fine sand scrub in the rising steam, then wrap the face with a large towel for 3 minutes to open the pores, and then use the needle cap of a medical injection needle (No. 5-7) disinfected with a 75% alcohol cotton ball or an acne remover to gently squeeze the skin at the edge of the acne to squeeze out the acne. This method is not easy to damage the nearby skin and will not leave scars. For unclogging pores, facial steamers are more effective, but they are a bit expensive.

3. Rehydrate.

To fight acne, you must moisturize. Moisture is the first element for beautiful skin. Whitening, sun protection, oil control, etc. are completed on the basis of moisturizing. The best way to prevent oily skin is to moisturize. Many acne friends have recurring acne, and the reason why they don’t get better is that they don’t moisturize enough. To moisturize, it is recommended to do this for two to three days, as a hydrating mask.

4. Anti-inflammatory and acne treatment

When the pimples mature and burst, what you need to do at this time is to reduce inflammation and prevent infection. When squeezing pimples, be sure to use a sterilized acne needle and make sure to squeeze them cleanly. It is best to use natural anti-inflammatory and acne treatments, such as aloe vera gel or tea tree oil.
