Acne

Noun

Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when the hair follicles under the skin become clogged. Your skin has tiny holes called pores. These pores can become blocked by oil, bacteria, dead skin cells, and dirt. When this occurs, you may develop a pimple.  When this occurs chronically it is referred to as acne. Acne is the most common skin condition and can be treated both topically and with oral medication if the case is severe enough. While acne doesn’t pose a serious risk to your overall health, it may be quite painful and can leave permanent scarring.
