I have bacne,however i'm afraid to go the doctor, as i'm afraid that he'd declare it a result of masturbation,which i occasionally do.what should i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Do not be concerned: It is not due to self sex, nor do we care if you occasionally do it.Since it is considered a normal part of human sexuality, I would consider you odd if you never did. Bacne can be related to skin sensitivity to a variety of chemicals in your shampoo, which drains down your back.Methyl parabens are noted as one triggering agent.Check your product & consider going paraben free.
