Fungal Acne - #18415
I’ve been struggling with small, itchy bumps on my forehead and cheeks for months. I thought it was regular acne, but no matter what creams or face washes I used, it wouldn’t go away. Then, I read about fungal acne, and it sounded exactly like what I have! Unlike normal pimples, these don’t have pus, and they itch like crazy. I haven’t seen a dermatologist yet, but I’m pretty sure it’s fungal acne. I want to know—how does Ayurveda explain fungal acne? If it’s caused by yeast overgrowth, does that mean my internal health is out of balance? Could my diet be making my fungal acne worse? I’ve noticed that whenever I sweat a lot, my fungal acne flares up. Does Ayurveda suggest any natural ways to control excess sweating and prevent fungal acne from getting worse? Are there cooling herbs or treatments that help with this? I also read that using too many skincare products can actually make fungal acne worse. I’ve been using different moisturizers and sunscreens, but maybe they’re clogging my pores. Does Ayurveda have simple, natural skincare remedies that won’t trigger fungal acne? Some people say fungal acne is connected to gut health. I do get bloating and digestion issues sometimes. Could an imbalanced stomach be the reason for my fungal acne? How can I fix this through Ayurveda? What’s the best Ayurvedic treatment for fungal acne? Are there any herbal pastes, oils, or home remedies that can clear it up without irritating my skin further? I just want to get rid of fungal acne for good. How can I prevent it from coming back once it’s gone? Are there long-term Ayurvedic skincare and dietary changes that can stop fungal acne from recurring?

How to Remove Pimples from Face - #19545
My face is a mess right now, and I have no idea what to do. I used to get a few pimples here and there, but now it’s like my entire face is covered. Red, painful, and some of them even leave marks after they go away. It’s getting worse, especially around my cheeks and forehead. I’ve tried different face washes, scrubs, and even some creams, but nothing seems to work. Every time I search online, I get a million different answers on how to remove pimples from face, but I don’t know what actually works. I also think my diet might be making it worse. I eat a lot of fried and spicy food, plus I drink coffee almost every day. I’ve heard that too much heat in the body can cause breakouts, so does that mean I should stop eating all these things? And what about dairy? Some people say milk causes pimples, while others say it doesn’t. It’s really confusing. Recently, someone told me that Ayurveda might be the best way how to remove pimples from face naturally. They mentioned Neem and Turmeric, but I don’t know how to use them properly. Should I apply them directly, or is it something I need to drink? Also, is there some kind of Ayurvedic detox that can help cleanse the skin from inside? My biggest concern is that these pimples are leaving dark spots, and my skin just looks uneven. I don’t want to keep using chemical creams if there’s a better way. If anyone has tried Ayurveda for this, can you tell me what actually worked? I just want to know how to remove pimples from face without making it worse.
