Most of the 80% of all teenagers that become victims
of acne (Acne
Vulgaris) obviously do not appreciate the ill
effects of this irritating skin condition and one
way of expressing their disgust is to term the acne
pimples as zits.
While referring the situation to friends and reltions,
they get so much worked out that more often than not
the slang gets more prominence than the usual. As
a matter of fact, zits are the most common slang for
pimples and it is not very unusual to hear, “the
zits took away my beauty”. It has become so
common that the word zit now is an entry in the common
English dictionary where it is described as slang
for pimple.

But sadly, even after using the slang word, none
of the bad effects of acne are suppressed or over
ruled. People are still scared of the tell tale acne
scars that are left by the lesions if they are
picked and adequate steps are not taken to cure them.
Studies show that some youngsters are so embarrassed
with their acne, that they are prone to become fatalists,
rather than accepting a scarry face that will never
look so glamorous again. No wonder that they term
the acne pimples or blemishes ‘zits’ that
have ruined their faces.
The following factors about zits may be considered
as significant points in viewing zits and their after
effects.
• Zits are usually caused by hormonal changes
in the body during early youth.
• Zits and acne may persist even up to adulthood.
• Zits are found on the face, neck, back and
the scalp.
• Though zits are irritating, they should better
be left alone till they disappear on their own.
• Picking zits will make things worse and may
give rise to secondary infection.
• Eating greasy food has nothing to do with
zits that are more related to imbalanced hormones
in the body.
• Persistent acne having too many zits may indicate
another problem and needs the attention of a dermatologist.
Though some of the acne zits go away on their own,
here are some home remedies that help prevent
acne.
• Ground nutmeg mixed with milk that has not
been boiled applied on the affected area may remove
the zits without any mark.
• 3 tablespoon of honey mixed with 1 teaspoon
of ground cinnamon may be applied on the affected
area before going to sleep. Rinse it off next morning
for 3 consecutive weeks.
• Apply a mixture of 1 teaspoon of lemon juice
and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon powder for half an hour
on the affected area and then rinsing it off with
warm water.
• Regular application of fresh garlic paste
on the pimples/zits will cause them to disappear.
• Application of the juice of a fresh papaya
along with its seeds and skin on the affected area
will reduce the swelling and redness. It should however
be washed off with warm water after sometime.
• Application of a mixture of lime juice and
rose water on the zits is helpful.
Instead of artificial lotions and chemicals, natural
products in treating pimples and zits will go a long
way to treat this agonizing and frustrating skin disease.
