Have you ever encountered the following problem: sudden outbreaks of acne on your face, red, swollen, and painful to the touch, even though you have long passed your teenage years? This "stubborn acne" is often not just a superficial skin issue in TCM, but an external signal of the body's internal condition.Title: TCM Perspective
Today, let's discuss the daily care of stubborn acne from a TCM perspective. According to TCM, acne is often related to internal factors such as liver fire, dampness-heat, and deficiency of the spleen and kidney. Therefore, the treatment of acne should not only focus on the skin but also on the internal balance of the body.Title: Daily Care
To effectively manage stubborn acne, the following daily care tips are recommended:1. Maintain a healthy diet: Avoid spicy, greasy, and high-sugar foods, and increase the intake of fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins and minerals.
2. Regular facial cleaning: Cleanse your face twice a day with a mild cleanser suitable for your skin type.
3. Avoid picking or squeezing acne: This can lead to infection and scarring.
4. Adequate sleep and stress management: Lack of sleep and excessive stress can exacerbate acne.
