under skin chin pimples - #19262

Shlok

I am really freaking out about these under skin chin pimples that have popped up outta nowhere! Like, just last week, everything was fine. I mean, I'm usually pretty good about my skincare routine and having acne is kinda rare for me. But now there are these painful, under skin chin pimples that I can't seem to get rid of. They hurt when I touch them and it's driving me nuts. I’ve tried some spot treatments, but they’re still there. I started to worry maybe it’s something diet-related since I did indulge in some junk food lately, but who knows? Are these under skin chin pimples a sign of something worse like hormonal issues? I feel like I’m throwing money at products that aren’t working at all. Also, do you think stress could be a factor? My job has been super demanding lately and I just feel like this whole thing is stress-related. Is there a logical way to deal with under skin chin pimples? Like, should I see a dermatologist or just try to wait it out? Any advice would help!

Doctors' responses

Under-skin chin pimples, also known as cystic acne, can indeed be frustrating and painful. Often, they’re caused by hormonal changes, which can explain why they appear almost suddenly. Hormones like androgens increase oil production in skin, leading to clogged pores. Stress can exacerbate this by promoting greater hormone production. Diet can play a role too, though it’s generally not the primary cause. High glycemic foods and dairy have been considered potential triggers, but individual response can vary. Given that these pimples are deep and inflamed, topical spot treatments may not be as effective as you’d hope. Instead, consider using products with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid but in moderation—using too much can irritate skin further. Avoid picking or squeezing these pimples as it can lead to scarring or infection. Over-the-counter retinoids might help as they promote cell turnover and prevent clogged pores. It might be worth visiting a dermatologist, especially if these pimples persist or become a regular occurrence. They can offer treatments like topical or oral antibiotics, or hormonal options, if necessary. In the meantime, keep your skincare routine simple. Avoid overly heavy or oily products that can clog pores. Make sure you’re cleansing twice a day with a gentle cleanser. Stress management can be beneficial: incorporate activities such as exercise or meditation which can reduce stress levels. There isn’t an immediate fix for cystic acne, but these approaches can help manage outbreaks and improve the condition over time. If there’s any sign of infection, or if these bumps do not subside, it’s best to consult a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation.
