Do you have Fungal Acne?

Fungal acne is actually due to a yeast. A yeast called malassezia furfur. This yeast is normally found on the skin in small numbers. Fungal acne occurs when the growth of this yeast goes unchecked & a population boom occurs.
.
Unlike normal acne, blackheads are rare with fungal infections. Fortunately, once diagnosed, fungal acne is super easy to treat.
.
Trigger factors for fungal acne include:
* Excessive sweating can cause fungal acne. Hence people living in humid climates are more prone to it as the yeast thrives on sweat. Heavy workouts can also cause it.
* Restrictive clothing or sweating under our garments and not showering to wash off the sweat can also be a trigger.
* Antibiotics (topical or oral) and immunosuppressants are also a cause.
* Other rare causes include endocrine disorders such as diabetes.
