There is no clear basis to suggest that the onset of acne is related to exercise. However, it is possible that heavy exercise may lead to increased secretion of sebaceous and sweat glands, which may induce acne. Whether patients can exercise and sweat is recommended to be judged in the context of their own situation.
The cause of acne has not been fully clarified. According to medical research, factors such as heredity, high androgen levels, overproduction of sebum, and propagation of Propionibacterium acnes may induce acne.
Acne may be induced by regular heavy exercise, which may lead to increased secretion of sebaceous or sweat glands, blockage of follicular openings, and propagation of Propionibacterium acnes. Therefore, patients are generally not recommended to perform strenuous exercise to avoid further aggravation of acne.
It is recommended to take good care of the face, improve bad habits, and maintain a good mood to help the recovery of acne. If acne is more serious, it is also necessary to go to the dermatology department of the hospital for reasonable treatment under the guidance of the doctor.
