Acne is the most common problem seen by doctors; when sebaceous glands become clogged with sebum (an oily substance produced by the skin), dirt and dead skin cells acne is formed. Often, bacteria are present which can contribute to the redness, swelling and pus that can accompany acne lesions, resulting in blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, and cysts. Usually present on the face and neck. It can also occur on the back, chest and shoulders.
