Rarely had acne - now it's everywhere!

[medassist]

In high school I had very few pimples and if I did it was only one or two every so often. Now I'm 24 and just started a new job in which I'm learning new skills (which I'll admit I've worried about at home) and BAM! pimples everywhere! Right now as I type this I'm having the worst breakout I've ever had. I have one on my jawline, about six on one temple, three on my cheek, one on the side of my nose, one next to my ear, TONS of tiny ones all over my chin, and two on the back of my neck! This has never happened and what's worse is when I did actually have acne it was always on my chin or forehead - that's it - and now it's in the strangest spots!

I have no changes in my medication or diet, the only thing I can think of is my new job? I work in a specialty medical office and I've had to learn a few new skills in which I didn't do at my old job - such as casting, removal of casts, and staple removal. I was really nervous about some of this and maybe this is why I have acne now?

Its very commom to get acne or breakouts from stress! Do you exercise at all? This can help reduce the cortisol in your body which is a stress hormone.

Start a food diary and see if you are eating anything as well that could contribute.

I can give you some great tips. Message me and I can give you a report that really helps.

Start a food diary and see if you are eating anything as well that could contribute to your breakouts. Are you eating certain fooRAB because you are stressed?

If it is stress, I recommend exercise, increasing omega 3's and stress reduction techniques like massage, meditation or just doing your favorite relaxing activity more often.

Hope this helps!
