If a person is suffering from acne then there are several things which he must avoid to improve the condition of acne. The first thing is not to squeeze the spot where acne is formed because most of the people have tendency to squeeze. Due to squeezing the bacteria present in the spot are pushed deeper in the skin making the condition of acne even more badly and it can also give rise to permanent scarring of the skin. Try to be patient while taking medicine because acne medicine need some time to work on the condition and this can go up to 6 weeks.  Due to this period, people get frustrated and stop the intake of the medicine. So it is important that you complete the medicine course as prescribed by the doctor. Don’t get drove away by the treatments which are saying that they can treat acne in very short time because there is no miracle treatment available for treating acne and sometimes herbal remedies can also cause harm to the skin. Don’t be too hard to your skin, wash the skin with gentle soap and clean it with dry towel and don’t scrub the face too hard because it can give rise to permanent marks on the skin.
