Thank you Akshay, for reaching out this platform and sharing your concern so openly i understand, how frustrating and confusing. It must be to deal with constant acne and bumps all over your face shoulders and chest for so many months, especially when you have already tried, so many products, face washes and serums and still havenât seen any improvement At your age, when the body is blowing and changing rapidly, it is completely natural to want to look and feel confident, but when the skin keeps breaking out again and again again, despite your efforts, it can really affect your mood, confident and self-esteem
First let me assure you, you are not alone. In this. Many people. Your age go through similar problems and it is very possible to treat this completely with the right understanding and consistent care in Ayurveda. We do not just look at the skin problem on the surface, we go deeper and understand what is happening inside the body that is causing this repeated reaction on your skin skin issues like acne, pimple, small bums, or even what feels like . Fungal acne or often, not just about what you apply on your skin, but more about what is happening internally in your digestion, your blood, your metabolism and your lifestyle.
The type of acne that keeps coming every 34 days, especially with bumps on the shoulder and chest, often indicate that your blood and digestive system or overheated or overloaded with something the body is trying to remove sometimes this happens due to excess oil or spicy food. Too many processed items, cold drinks, lack of proper duration and even stress at your age. Hormonal changes. Also play a big role. Your body is still adjusting and settling into its natural rhythm. The hormonal activity can lead to more oil production in the skin, and if your digestion is not clean or your diet is Triggering heat or sticks in the blood. It shows up as frequent acne.
Now, even though you feel this might be fungal acne because you read about it on Google, it is important not to label yourself based on what you see Skin conditions can look similar, but I have completely different causes fungal acne, for example is usually eat and apples in clusters and doesnât respond to normal acne products, but even if it is fungal the real solution in correcting your internal balance, not just using stronger creams or antifungal shampoo, Ayurveda treats skin problems by first clearing out the toxins from the blood supporting the liver cooling down the system, gently and improving direction. We also use natural harps that support clean skin, but that suits your age and body type.
Since youâre only 14, your treatment be gentle and safe, not harsh face wash or medicine that suppress the symptoms without healing. The route first look at your diet. Try to reduce fried, spicy and oily foods. Avoid soft drinks, sweets, chocolate chips, bakery items, and cold milkshakes. These things make your skin oil and clog your system instead include more fruits like papaya, pomegranate, and apples, drink warm water throughout the day., especially first thing in the morning, if possible, drink fresh home-made juice of coriander juice with a little lemon once a day, this helps clean blood naturally
Also, observe your direction. If you get constipation, gas or a heavy stomach, it means the waste is not leaving your body properly. This waste gets pushed out through the skin in the form of acne, so make sure your bubbles are clear every day. You can do this by eating more fibre rich foods like fruits lightly cooked vegetables and whole grains. Avoid eating late at night and reduce screen time after dinner late night habits affect digestion and hormones.
On your skin award, using too many products at the same time, choose one gentle natural cleanser like a mix of sandalwood powder and rose water to clean your face twice a day, awards, rubbing too much or using strong acne creams. The dry out your skin you can apply your aloe vera gel at night. It cools heels, and reduces information without blocking your pores for the bumps on your shoulders and chest You can apply a paste of Neem powder mixed with rose water or aloe vera 2 to 3 times a week wash it off after 20 minutes, safe, cooling and helpful in both bacterial and fungal skin issues
Sometimes acne flair ups due to a weak, clever or poor blood purification in such cases, simple Ayurvedic harps like Neem manjista guduchi help a lot, but at your age, you should only take them under proper guidance. If your symptoms or more related to body heat, we can use safe for herbal tea or powder that produces internal information without disturbing your natural growth.
It is also important to allow your body to sweat properly. Sweating helps release toxins. Donât be afraid of sweat through my daily activity like walking, playing outdoor sports or even light exercise, but make sure you bath soon after sweating to avoid bacteria or fungus settling in the skinfold, change your clothes every day and use a mild soap that suits your skin type.
Another thing I want to tell you is not to stress or feel ashamed about your skin. It is not your fault and it doesnât mean youâre doing something wrong. It simply means your body is going through changes and heâs asking for some support. Please donât pick or press the pimples that only worsen the inflammation and spread it . Be gentle with your self speak, kindly to yourself and try not to compare your skin with others. Everyoneâs body as a different journey.
If youâre interested, I can prepare a simple Ayurvedic skin care plan for you with basic diet tips, daily habits, and gentle herbal support that can clear your skin from the inside. No harsh treatments, no complicated products, just natural consistent, safe methods. That will help your skin become clear, strong, and healthy again.
You have age on your side. Your body will respond very well. Once it gets the right Care. It might take a few weeks, but the improvement will come and it will be long-lasting. You wonât need to keep depending upon expensive SEERUMS or guessing based on internet searches instead your reflecting the balance you bring inside your body
Please donât give up hope and donât let this situation affect your confidence. You are doing your best, and you have already taken the first step by reaching out for help. I am here to guide you gently and carefully keeping your age and body needs in mind , letâs work together to bring your skin back to natural state, clear, fresh, and comfortable

God Bless You đđ
If you have any questions u can ask me.I will answer to the level of your satisfaction.U have text option here.
Addressing acne and associated skin issues often involves understanding various internal and external factors that influence skin health. In Ayurveda, acne can be related to an imbalance in the doshas, particularly Pitta. This imbalance might manifest as excessive heat and inflammation within the skin tissues. When you mention having used various products, itâs possible theyâre not aligning with your Ayurvedic constitution, or prakriti.
First, letâs focus on internal balance. An anti-inflammatory diet can support better skin health. Emphasize cooling, hydrating foods like cucumbers, sweet juicy fruits, and leafy greens. Avoid excessively spicy, oily, or sour foods as they can increase Pitta. Regular consumption of warm water with fresh lemon juice in the morning is also beneficial for detoxifying the system.
Next, pay attention to digestion - Agni, or the digestive fire, must be balanced to ensure proper assimilation of nutrients. Ayurvedic herbs like Triphala can aid digestion and may contribute to clear skin. Take 1 teaspoon of Triphala powder with warm water at night to keep the bowels moving regularly, which helps clear toxins.
Regarding topical treatments, try using sandalwood and rose water paste to soothe your skin. Mix sandalwood powder with rose water to form a paste and apply it to the affected areas for about 15-20 minutes, then rinse with lukewarm water. This provides a cooling effect and may reduce inflammation.
Neemoil, applied lightly on the skin, can also serve as an antibacterial that targets underlying infections causing the acne. Make sure to patch test before applying widely.
Moderate sun exposure is helpful, but avoid extreme heat. Stress-relieving practices, such as yoga and meditation, support holistic healing by promoting a calmer state of mind and balance in bodily functions.
Since small bumps are also present on your shoulders and chest, reflect on your clothing choices. Choose breathable, cotton materials and ensure your skin is clean and free from moisture buildup. Always pat dry after a shower rather than rubbing the skin harshly.
If irritation persists or you suspect fungal acne, connecting with a healthcare professional for a Microscopic examination could be helpful for a proper diagnosis. Ayurveda aims for a balanced approach, so itâs essential to remain patientâholistic care can take time to manifest visible results.
