Infected hairs.

I don't really have bad quantity of acne, but the acne I do have is awful. I get small cysts rather than the regular bumps, so a small cyst can cover a 4th of my nose. Fortunately I keep dosed up on these fantastic pills that keep them from sprouting. However anytime one does, I get to drive 2 hours to my dermatologist to have it sucked off.

Sounds hawt.

By suck, he sticks a shot (needle can also be used as an innuendo) into the cyst where he then injects some chemicals and recalls the stuff in the cyst itself. The only "hawtness" about it is the day-long burn I get from it.

Don't eat fast food or other shit. Wash your face, and get out.

Seems to work for me.

I eat very healthy. You and your US stereotypes Geo.

Mine are more medical.

I forgot to tell you guys, I normally don't get like big ones, just a lot of little ones spread out on my forehead, chin, around the base of my nose and on my back. I usually have one medium-sized one located somewhere, like for example right now the one I had on my chin is starting to go away, while a big one is sprouting on my neck. And I've had the little ones on my forehead and under my nose especially for a long time. I need to get rid of most of em before I get a real haircut, if ever I do, so that my zits won't just stand out clear as day without my long hair covering them.

Now, now iGeo. When my friend worked at Burger King, he ate there a lot. He never had zits.

I've never had a bad problem. Just a little here and there. Long hair causes it more because your hair gets greasy, and gets on your face. So I'd wash your hair at least two times a day. I've been using Noxema and it seems to work, since I never get them. Also they won't go away after just a night. It may take months.

i pop the medium ones when i see 'em, but i do suppose it's a bad habit... I just have a medium hair cut (this has a bigger effect than you'd think) and try to use one of those pad things a day, like after i take a shower for example.

Go and have a chat with a dermatologist. Hopefully he can prescribe you pills and a liquid to use at night. Doxycycline and Ziana seem to work. Also, it's been proven that trans-fats negatively affect acne, so avoid that.

haha, I just laughed at that because I just now found a site that says the latter. I'm not not being aggressive at all, I am just curious where you found that out?

Well, I heard it from my dermatologist. I guess "proven" was a bad choice of words. There is credible evidence that shows trans-fats can affect acne. At least he says so.

Also, this is rant thread territory.

Interesting. I'll re-research it for a more clear answer.
