Introduction
Today I am going to share with you the topic of can I squeeze acne? I’m going to give you a general introduction through a mind map. First of all, we have to prohibit ourselves to squeeze randomly, and secondly we recommend to go to medical institutions for professional squeezing or clearing acne.
A. Prohibition of randomly squeezing acne
If we squeeze the acne by ourselves, it is likely to lead to intracranial infection, local infection and scarring.
1, squeezing acne may cause intracranial infection.
There are some bacteria on our skin, such as Staphylococcus aureus, and after we squeeze it with our hands, it will cause the skin to break, and the bacteria will enter the lesion through the broken skin and multiply, leading to local infection, and possibly through reflux, into the venous sinus. Why does it reflux? Because our facial vein valve is missing, especially the facial “danger triangle” vein is particularly close to the venous sinus, so when we go to squeeze the acne may lead to bacterial reflux into the venous sinus and cause intracranial infection, which is life-threatening. So do not just squeeze the acne.
2, squeeze pimples easy to cause local infection.
We usually squeeze acne, often not strictly disinfected, we may not be disinfected, it is easy to squeeze it with your hands, squeeze out the pus and blood, directly with a tissue to wipe, so the disinfection is not strict, it is easy to cause local infection and aggravate the inflammation of acne.
3, easy to squeeze acne easy to leave scars.
When we squeeze the acne through violence, the damage may expand, aggravating the inflammatory reaction, prone to infection, aggravating the condition, without regular and timely treatment, it is easy to leave scars, damage to the face, leaving a long-lasting regret.
Second, the recommended professional squeeze acne or clear acne
The actual fact is that you can’t get rid of it. In fact, in medical institutions acne can still be squeezed, but we must pay attention to the way and method. If the situation is serious, we recommend going to a medical institution for specialized treatment. It is recommended to go to the dermatology department of a regular hospital for professional and systematic treatment.
When squeezing acne, we should pay attention to strict disinfection, and then open the hole with a fire needle, and then squeeze homeopathically, which can promote the repair of acne. In this process, it is also necessary to pay attention to the indications for fire needling.
1, strict disinfection.
Strict disinfection is the key link to avoid foreign infection, which is one reason why we usually do not recommend people to squeeze themselves. When we squeeze ourselves disinfection is often not strict, leading to infection. When we professionally squeeze or clean up the acne, we need to use alcohol or anl iodine etc. for professional disinfection.
2. Fire needle opening.
We usually squeeze the acne is hard to squeeze it out, so it is easy to damage the skin and expand the inflammation, so what to do? I suggest that the rapid puncture of the lesion through the fire needle, forming a small hole, so that this evil has an outlet, in addition to the high temperature of the fire needle, has a sterilizing effect, can kill the microorganisms inside the lesion. After the fire needle puncture, causing local burn-like changes, can promote the skin’s immunity to improve, promote local secretion of some beneficial inflammatory factors, these factors can kill part of the microorganisms.
3, homeopathic squeeze.
After the fire needle puncture, we carry out homeopathic squeezing. When squeezing, pay attention to the action to be very gentle to homeopathic, do not use violence, slowly squeeze out the contents.
4, to promote repair.
After the fire acupuncture treatment, gently squeeze the contents to clean them out, so that the body can repair them faster and easier, and reduce scar formation.
The photo of the previous patient with severe coalescent acne after 45 days of treatment with fire acupuncture + Chinese herbal medicine internal adjustment and external application. He recovered well, but still left some scars.
5. Indications for fire acupuncture.
Fire acupuncture is suitable for all types of acne except blackhead acne. For example, for non-inflammatory acne, we can use cosmetic fire needling to puncture and then gently scrape it off; for inflammatory acne, such as papules, nodules, pustules, and cysts, we can use fine fire needling to puncture and then gently squeeze out the contents with a cotton swab to promote lesion repair.
