Interesting are the simple and clear topics that show us the way to "solve" the health problems that commonly overwhelm us. And they are more attractive if it gives us the possibility of solving them from a very economic point, here is the importance of natural treatments.
The Acne
- What is it?
Known as common acne or acne vulgaris, it is a skin condition, characterized by the inflammation of the sebaceous glands and hair follicles, causing pimples or pimples, mainly affects the face and back, this condition is quite frequent between different age groups, but it is evidenced in large percentages in adolescents, it is not a serious illness but its lacerations can cause scars. It is classified depending on the severity or the injuries it causes.
- How does it happen?
The small holes in the skin are called pores and connect to the sebaceous glands under the skin. These glands produce a fatty substance called sebum. The pores are connected to these glands through a conduit called the follicle and, inside the follicles, the sebum transports the dead skin cells to the surface. A thin hair also grows through the follicle to reach the surface of the skin. Sometimes, the hair, sebum and skin cells come together and create a plug in the pore. Bacteria that are present in the plug cause swelling. When the plug begins to fall apart, a pimple forms (pimple). Source

What causes it?
The exact causes of the onset of acne are unknown, but there is evidence that occurs due to hormonal changes in adolescence, during the woman's menstrual period, high-fat diet, bad hygienic practices of the face or affected areas , stress and in more serious cases due to pH or blood problems, it will also be attributed to the intake of chocolate.Basic recommendations:
- Clean the affected area better (without disturbing the injuries).

Many are the treatments that suggest to combat the appearance of acne or improve the already present injuries, infinities are the creams and exfoliants that are made with natural products and some chemical compounds for their preservation. For this reason I present some recommendations considered effective for their natural treatment:
Washing in the mornings at night before sleeping your face with warm salt water, helps to eliminate fat.
Grind a piece of milky until a homogeneous mixture is obtained, place on the face and leave for 15 minutes, this helps to eliminate dead cells and excess fat.

- Blend oranges shells with a little water and apply on the face for 20 minutes. These essential oils have a high antimicrobial power against the microorganisms (Staphylococcus aureus) that cause the lacerations evidenced in acne.

Place compresses of hot water to allow the pores to open and drain the contaminants that clog it, then wash with cold water.
Grind in 3 to 5 heads of garlic and make a homogeneous paste, apply it on the face and let it act for 15 minutes, or eat a fasting garlic daily, this is a powerful antimicrobial against various microorganisms.

Make a paste with baking soda and water, and form a paste, apply on the face and leave for 10 minutes, keep your face clean and smooth.
Apply the lemon juice in the affected area and let it act for 10 minutes or use honey in the same way, both are antibacterial and softeners.

Hi, @luciana.malave thanks for sharing. So much to learn from posts like this. If only people with a pimple would leave it alone and treat it as suggested like said in most articles you read on acne. But no they have to squeeze and burst it and more times with dirty fingernails, thus allowing infection becoming a possibility. Again thank you and take care @racykacy
If that is the intention. Educate ourselves and stop implementing those "solutions" that generate more problems, greetings and thanks.
Greetings back at you and thank you for the post...@racykacy
