👉 Acne vulgaris, commonly known as pimples, is a skin condition characterized by the formation of various types of lesions, primarily caused by clogged hair follicles and excess oil production. When pores become blocked with dead skin cells, bacteria, and oil, they can lead to inflammation and the development of pimples. These lesions can appear as red, swollen bumps, cysts, or whiteheads, and their severity can range from mild to severe. Factors such as genetics, hormonal changes, stress, and certain medications can contribute to the occurrence of acne. Effective management often involves a combination of topical treatments, oral medications, and lifestyle adjustments to reduce inflammation and prevent future breakouts.
