Question: There is one thing I've learned and that is to not!.!.!.
squeeze white heads! I had 7 that came up on Thursday and I took it into my own hands to pop them and I made them worse!. They're finally clearing now but next time I'm not touching them at all!. How do you deal with whiteheads!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
there is no right or wrong way to deal with them, popping them will release the pus and so may help the pain and can help stop infection however if you do pop them they can scar or if not all pus has been removed they can come back with vengence!.
toothpaste is a good home remedy for reducing the swelling of spots!.
food will not cause any problems with your skin, parents tell their kids that to get them to stop eating rubbish like chocolate and cakes!.
spots are caused by sebum (natural oil) produced by the skin as a protective coating and bacteria which gets into the pores!.
if the face wash you have is too harsh it can remove the acid mantel of the skin which can leave it open to all sorts of bacteria that can cause spots!.
make sure you use cleanser, toner and moisturiser that is correct for your skin type and use it morning and evening to keep the skin as clear and fresh as can be!. sometimes hormones can kick oil production into overdrive which can cause spots also!.
its not too bad to squeez spots as long as your hands are clean unless you have bad acne in which case its likely to get infected and scar badly!.
personally if i get spots i do squeeze themWww@Answer-Health@Com

It's debatable about food/white heads but take note if you over indulged or went to bed without washing your face, stress, hormonal break outs!.

The best way is to take a sterile pin to the center and let the puss drain without really squeezing them!. Or a hot compress is preferred - bringing them to a head that way!.

You need to wash your face twice a day without fail!.
AM, and at bed time!.
Toner
and spot treat all acne with an acne cream to help dry out the blemish!.
