When I came back from get off work, I saw that my precious son’s room was in a mess. Shoes and clothes were thrown everywhere, and books were scattered on the table. The mother sighed softly, walked into the room, and tidied up her son carefully. When putting things in the drawer, my mother was surprised to find two birth control pill boxes. When she picked them up, she found that one was empty and the other was mostly half eaten!

Alas! This brat, who is about to take the college entrance examination, actually fell in love with a girl behind our backs! No, I have to ask for clarification. Unexpectedly, when we asked further, the answer was quite different from what we thought. The son told his mother: "This birth control pill is not for girls. I take it myself. I bought it from the drugstore to treat acne."

A false alarm! The mother looked at her son lovingly: the 17-year-old boy had already grown to 1.70 meters tall. He was tall and thin because he had more than a dozen acne on his face, otherwise he could be considered a handsome young man. The mother asked her son: "Didn't I buy you several kinds of facial cleansers and external medicines that are effective in treating acne? Why don't you use them?"

The son replied in annoyance: "If it is effective, will I take this medicine secretly? I read in a magazine that in addition to contraception, contraceptive pills can also regulate hormones in the body, reduce acne, and even make the skin white and tender. Smooth. So I bought two boxes without telling you and tried it for more than a month. Hey, it is really effective in treating acne."

After all, I am a teenage boy. Contraceptive pills are always a bit awkward to talk about. The mother was worried, so she called a familiar gynecologist and asked her whether there would be any side effects for boys taking birth control pills to prevent and treat acne. The doctor told the worried mother: "Acne is commonly known as acne and pimples. It mostly occurs on the fatty parts of the face and manifests as pimples and red papules. Sometimes it develops into small abscesses, cysts, nodules, abscesses and sinus tracts. It will heal. Pigmentation and scars will be left behind, which will seriously affect the appearance of the face. The accumulation of heat in the lungs and stomach, blood heat and dampness and toxins are the internal causes of acne formation and recurrence. The food is greasy and spicy, the pressure of study and work is high, and irritability. Endocrine disorders, etc., cause the human body to eventually become yang-rich and turn into fire, which is trapped in the blood and burns the veins, leading to the externalization of blood-heat and the extravasation of internal toxins, blocking the veins, causing dampness and heat to accumulate on the body surface, eventually causing oil to clog pores and cause inflammation. And bacteria multiply, forming acne, which is what people call acne. Therefore, to completely remove acne, the treatment is to cool the blood and detoxify.

“The main ingredients of birth control pills are progesterone and estrogen. Hormones can have adverse effects on growing and developing teenagers. Especially for your son, who is in the formation stage of secondary sexual characteristics, he should not take birth control pills indiscriminately, otherwise it will affect his growth and development - once a man takes too much birth control pills, his breasts will increase, his armpit hair and beard will decrease, and even Some male characteristics will be lost. Therefore, young boys with acne must not act recklessly. "

My mother was frightened. She asked the doctor: "How should acne be treated? ”

The doctor told her: Comprehensive treatment should be emphasized when treating acne. Common drugs include tetracycline, doxycycline, minocycline pellets and capsules, etc. It is worth noting that the current drug resistance of acne bacteria is increasing, and external drugs can only have a temporary therapeutic effect; to truly eliminate toxins from the body and regulate the disordered metabolism of the human body, we need to rely on traditional Chinese medicine and The organic combination of methods, prescriptions and medicines.

Traditional Chinese medicine divides acne into three syndrome types: wind-heat in the lung meridian, which is characterized by red papules, or itching and pain, red tongue, thin yellow coating, and floating pulse. You can use Loquat Fei Drink (Ginseng, loquat leaves, licorice, mulberry bark, coptis, etc.) Add or subtract to clear the lungs and disperse wind. Damp-heat accumulation is manifested by rash, redness, or pustules, bad breath, constipation, and yellow urine. You can use Loquat Qingfei Yin combined with Huanglian Jiedu Decoction (loquat leaves, mulberry bark, coptis, astragalus, cork, rhubarb, ginseng, etc. ), add or subtract to suit heat and dampness. Condensation of phlegm and dampness, manifested as rashes forming cysts, thin fur, slippery pulse, etc. You can use Seaweed Yuhu Decoction combined with Shenling Atractylodes Atractylodes Powder (seaweed, tangerine peel, Fritillaria, Angelica sinensis, ginseng, Poria, Atractylodes, etc.) plus or minus. Resolve phlegm and strengthen the spleen.

Since the formation of acne is closely related to the accumulation of toxic substances in the body, when toxins accumulate in the body for a long time and cannot be discharged in time, it may affect the skin and cause various symptoms on the skin, such as facial acne. Acne, spots, etc. Although the human body has formed a powerful and relatively complete detoxification immune mechanism in the long process of evolution, which can smoothly eliminate toxins in the body in most cases, in real life, due to work stress, , high psychological stress, unreasonable diet, reduced exercise, etc., the physiological mechanism of detoxification will be destroyed. Therefore, while following the doctor's advice for treatment, you can use drugs based on Chinese herbal medicine to detoxify, such as detoxifying and nourishing capsules.

Traditional Chinese medicine detoxifies the body mainly through two aspects: ① Combining tonic and tonic to expel and remove toxins from the body; ② Regulate the balance of the body to make qi and blood flow smoothly, qi is well organized, and yin and yang are balanced .

After listening to the doctor’s explanation, the mother felt more relieved and confident in curing her son’s acne. (The above content is only authorized for exclusive use by family doctors online. Please do not reproduce without permission.)
