ACNE: Acne is the result of hormonal changes, particularly in adolescence. You can prevent it by eliminating nuts and peanut butter, stopping chocolate; cutting down on dairy products. Wash with neutrogena acne wash; apply a bpo (benzoyl peroxide) cream or lotion -- something like clearasil -- on the affected areas at night. If it persists, see a dermatologist who may prescribe an antibiotic for you.

Work Up First: Sometimes acne is treated with topical or oral medicines designed to fight infection of the skin or to dry out the skin once the acne develops. Women women get acne as a results of an underlying gyn hormonal disorder and so diagnosing that and treating that can sometimes prevent the acne from ever developing or at least slow it down.
