A member asked:
I have really bad acne on my forehead, and it's spreading to my cheeks and on my eyes ? is that even possible to be on the eyes ? how can i treat this

Basic Rx: "Bad" acne is going to require prescription-strength Rx, at least to start. Begin with topical benzoyl peroxide or retinoic acid or salicylic acid and make your doctor appointment. Ignore all "pop" advice and "tips". Acne is unrelated to lifestyle or hygiene and there's no clear relationship to diet. It is not curable but eventually remits on its own for reasons no one understands.
