1. Are all acne the same? Are there different types?
The most common types of acne are as follows:
Whiteheads: Raised bumps on the skin with white or yellow pus inside.
Blackheads: Open comedones with a darker surface.
Papules: Small, red rashes without pus.
Pustules: Usually red with a white pus-filled surface, generally considered moderately inflamed.
Nodules: Large, firm, and buried deep in the skin.
Cysts: Larger than nodules and filled with pus, generally more painful.
If the skin is already red, indicating inflammation, it is generally not recommended to pop it yourself....
