Introduction
Acne induration may be caused by不良 habits, inflammation of hair follicles and sebaceous glands, nodular acne, cystic acne, or scar tissue formation, and can be treated according to the specific condition. Poor daily skin hygiene may worsen acne symptoms, such as redness and pain, and severe cases may be accompanied by itching. Use a gentle facial cleanser to clean the face morning and night, and avoid using excessive cosmetics and skincare products.

Acne induration may be caused by不良 habits, follicular sebaceous gland inflammation, nodular acne, cystic acne, scar tissue formation, etc., and can be treated according to different situations. It is recommended to visit a hospital promptly and receive treatment under the guidance of a doctor.

1.不良 habits: Poor daily skin hygiene may worsen acne symptoms, such as redness, swelling, and pain. Severe cases may be accompanied by itching. Use a gentle facial cleanser to clean your face morning and night, and avoid using excessive cosmetics and skincare products to prevent pore blockage.

2. Follicular Sebaceous Gland Inflammation: Inflammation of the follicular sebaceous glands occurs when the hair follicle opening becomes blocked, preventing normal sebum drainage, allowing bacteria to multiply within the follicle, triggering an inflammatory response, resulting in localized redness, swelling, pain, and formation of hard lumps. It is recommended to use medications such as clindamycin gel, erythromycin ointment, or doxycycline hydrochloride tablets under the guidance of a doctor to improve the condition.

3. Nodular Acne: This is a severe type of acne characterized by deep, firm nodules that are difficult to resolve. It is recommended to follow medical advice to use photodynamic therapy, which helps control inflammation and promote the resolution of induration.

4. Cystic Acne: When follicular sebaceous gland inflammation extends into the subcutaneous tissue, it forms cysts containing pus, leading to noticeable hard lumps and pustules on the skin surface. Large, deep pustules are tender and may be accompanied by fever. It is recommended to use medications such as adapalene gel, tretinoin cream, or sulfur ointment under medical guidance to alleviate discomfort.

5. Scar Tissue Formation: Improper management or an overly strong inflammatory response during acne healing may lead to scar tissue formation. It is recommended to undergo laser therapy, microneedling, or other treatments under the guidance of a doctor to improve scar tissue and restore smooth skin.

In daily life, attention should be paid to skin cleansing and moisturizing; appropriate topical and oral medications should be selected under medical guidance; physical or professional treatments may be considered when necessary. Additionally, maintaining good living and dietary habits can help alleviate acne symptoms and prevent recurrence.
