Hi, i have severe acne on my face. i m not sure what is causing this? is it because of masterbation? how can i treat it?

You're a young man: Acne isn't caused by masturbating; all men do it and it's how you learn about your body in preparation for marriage & fatherhood. Even if your acne is severe, it is easy and cheap enough to control with today's rx's. Topical treatment and a systemic antibiotic may be enough to keep it at bay, or you may need a hardcore rx that only a dermatologist can give you. Good luck.
