FACIAL ERUPTIONS
The most common facial skin-
disease is acne. It does not depend
upon a<blood condition for its origin.
ITierefore “blood-medicines” do not
cure it.
This disease varies in severity, from
a few small pustules to many large
ones, the latter often leaving disfigur
ing pits or scars. A certain germ, the
aqne baccillus, may be found with the
microscope, and may rather accom
pany than cause the eruption. We
know that a rich, highly-seasoned diet
will lend color to the picture; cheese
and the like, including mince pies and
fried foods are to be avoided. They
overload certain glands of the skin
which are already choked and inactive.
A plain diet of coarse bread, fresh
vegetables, plenty of fruits and drink
ing water is to be commended. Young
people do not need coffee or tea.
TTie • pustules should never be
squeezed. They may be carefully
punctured with a clean needle dipped
in a solution of carbolic acid before
using, and then swabbed with cotton
wet with peroxide of hydrogen. If hot
wet packs are applied to the face, be
sure to follow with cold packs, a min
ute or two after. Leave the special
medication to your physician.
The acne patient should use his own
towels and pillow-linen. The face
should not be daubed with ointments
or cheap lathers that stop up the
pores. A good lotion for the face is
made by adding boracic acid to water,
in any strength desired, for it is
harmless. Lemon-juiee lightly applied
cleanses the tiny grooves in the skin,
but should be rinsed lightly after the
application. Use no face powders con
taining lead or unknown coloring in
gredients.
