Itchy Pimples on Face
Red pimples on the face that are itchy and irritated are best left alone. There are many things to avoid when a person has itchy acne on face.- Eating red and processed meat. A lot of people don’t bother to avoid these to eliminate their acne but the extensive preparation process that processed food such as hot dogs, meat pies and frozen meats go through will not help clear the skin.
- Touching affected areas are strictly prohibited for people who have acne. Acne is mostly based on bacteria and infection and frequent touching using unclean hands will only worsen the condition.
- Touching also spreads the infection to other areas in the face.
- Junk food must also be avoided. A person who has gone through bouts of acne will find that certain foods will aggravate their skin condition. Some foods that are high in fat are to be avoided, as well as those that contain too much sugar.
