During epidemic prevention and control it is usually necessary to wear a mask, which creates a relatively closed environment on the face, causing bacteria to breed and aggravate acne.
To address this symptom, you should pay attention to facial cleanliness and choose a cleanser that is suitable for your skin type to rub and clean. Do not squeeze the pimples that have formed. Mild acne can be treated with topical retinoic acid ointment. If lesions worsen and red papules or pustules appear, topical antibiotic ointment, such as mupirocin, can be used. Clean your hands when applying the ointment. If further aggravation occurs and moderate to severe acne forms, treatment with oral antibiotics or isotretinoin is required under the supervision of a dermatologist.
