I am 25 yr old male and have a skin problem that flares up constantly. Just when I think my skin is about to clear, it flares back up.

The worst effected areas are around my jaw line where the ear meets kneck/jaw, and also around my mouth and below bottom lip.
They are pimples, red and eventually turning white. I have tried every thing to clear them.

I eat very healthy, regulary exercise, almost daily workouts.
I try to cleanse with exfoliant and a tea tree oil as my skin is oily from time to time. I don't excessively clean. I exfoliate two or 3 times a week, and wash twice a day.

Why have I got acne!!!???
 
While working out is great for your body,sweat can indeed make break outs worse.
It is unfortunate,I know.Every time I start working out a lot too I get break outs.
You mention that you are exfoliating? Are you using a scrub to do that? Because scrubs of any kind actually aggravate acne prone skin.Tea tree oil is ok,but after working out you should be using an antibacterial face wash or a Benzoyl peroxide face wash since heat and sweat breed bacteria.

If you do not improve,you should look into seeing a dermatologist.
 
I agree with when it rains about the anti-bacterial wash and seeing a dermatologist.

Even though drugs like Roccutane and Vilantae can help, i think you would like to find out why it is happening for you, rather than build a dependence of any type of tablet.

You say you eat healthy, which is good, but check that you dont have some sort of food reaction that is causing the outbreak, maybe even an allergy. You could get this tested, but another way is to list out what you eat and drink and see if there is anything in there you could give up. Maybe anything that causes excees sugar spiking in your blood sugars. Dont always assume the obvious things like sugary fizzy drinks, but also excessive wheat products. Just try cutting one or more of these out and see what happens ?
Reduce stress, i use hypnotic relaxation scripts at bedtime, helps.
Good luck.
 
Acne is more common in adults than people realize. It's great that you eat very healthy and exercise. The thing is that you may have a food allergy or intolerance. Many people have cured their acne by eliminating fooRAB that triggered food allergy or sensitivity. Do you drink milk or eat wheat and other gluten grains? If you do, that may be your problem. You can get tested for it, or just eliminate those 2 fooRAB for a while and when your acne improves add back one of the fooRAB to see what happens. Detoxification also helps alot. There are teas that you can drink to cleanse your liver. Burdock root, milk thisle, and dandelion. They have been proven to work for people with acne. This is how I cleared my acne. I hope it helps you to.
