How to get rid of pimples for boys

      Under normal circumstances, pimples are also known as acne. Acne in boys may be caused by hormonal changes during puberty, stress, improper local hygiene, eczema, folliculitis, and other factors. It is recommended to seek timely medical advice to identify the cause and then undergo general treatment, medication, and other measures under the guidance of a qualified physician. A detailed analysis is as follows:

      1. Hormonal Changes During Puberty

      During puberty, increased levels of androgens in boys stimulate excessive sebum production by the sebaceous glands, leading to clogged pores and a higher risk of acne. This may be accompanied by the development of secondary sexual characteristics, such as increased body hair and a deeper voice. It is recommended to maintain facial cleanliness, use gentle facial cleansers, and avoid squeezing pimples.

      2. Stress

      Prolonged mental stress can lead to hormonal imbalances in the body, potentially increasing cortisol levels, stimulating the sebaceous glands to produce more oil, and thus worsening acne in boys. Symptoms may include anxiety and insomnia. It is recommended to practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, yoga, and meditation to help reduce stress. Maintaining healthy lifestyle habits, getting sufficient sleep, and eating a balanced diet can also help alleviate stress. If necessary, consulting a mental health professional for expert psychological support is advisable.

      3. Poor Local Hygiene

      If boys neglect personal hygiene, it can lead to poor local cleanliness, causing clogged pores and resulting in acne. This may be accompanied by oily skin, clogged pores, and blackheads. It is recommended to choose gentle facial cleansers to remove dirt, excess oil, and dust from the skin's surface, preventing pore blockage.

      4. Eczema

      If a boy's skin remains in a moist and poorly ventilated environment for a prolonged period, eczema may develop, which can subsequently lead to acne on the forehead. Symptoms may also include itching and blisters. Under a doctor's guidance, medications such as hydrocortisone cream, Shiduqing Capsules, and calamine lotion can be used for treatment.

      5. Folliculitis

      Folliculitis is usually caused by infection with Staphylococcus aureus. When hair follicles in boys are injured or irritated, bacteria can easily invade and cause infection, leading to acne. Symptoms may also include redness, swelling, and pain. It is recommended to use medications such as erythromycin ointment, mupirocin ointment, and fusidic acid cream under the guidance of a doctor.

      In daily life, maintaining good living and dietary habits and actively cooperating with medical treatment is advised.
