Scalp
pimples
, also known as Acne Necrotica Miliaris
that often form around hair follicles are pimples
resembling acne. However they are different from those
occurring on the face which is associated with sebum
(oil) glands opening directly on the skin surface. With
pimples on the scalp, the oil glands open into the hair
follicles that get inflamed and itchy. Although what
cause scalp pimples is still not
very clear but clogged follicles, micro-organisms like
yeast, mites or staphylococcus bacterium are usually
linked with this mildly distressing malaise.
What Are Scalp Pimples?
Pimples
in the scalp can vary in nature, resulting in small
itchy pustules that are usually noticed while combing or
brushing the hair - they may become infected if
fortuitously opened up, causing complications later.
However, on their own, scalp pimples do not cause any
major stressful condition.
As
for the treatment of such pimples, the affected area
responds to a few application of Tar Shampoo
(salicylic acid
solution) while more severe infestations may need
topical antibiotics or steroids for quick relief.
However, compounds like Benzoyl Peroxide
should preferably be avoided because of its
extremely harsh and dehydrating effect. You need also to
know that many conventional remedies cause severe side
effects. Apart from the external cleansing, some from of
internal cleansing is also often prescribed by way of
water or juice fasting. To get the desired result, one
should eliminate all processed food, fast food, junk
food as well as cocoa-buttered confectionaries and
carbonated soft drinks. Similarly, all mucus or acid
forming food items should also be proscribed. Instead,
one may indulge in more wholesome and natural food items
like nuts, fresh fruits, leafy vegetables and fresh
fruit juice.
What Causes Scalp Acne?
It
would perhaps had been enough to draw a concluding line
on managing Acne Necrotica Miliaris or scalp
pimples at this stage but that would surely
have deprived many from knowing the true cause of the
disease condition and its natural cure through holistic
way of treatment. Acne Necrotica is caused due to three
primary reasons that include (a) Hormonal misbalance,
(b) Toxic buildup within the body and (c) Sensitivity of
the sebum or oil producing glands in the
body.
As for the first issue, the
hormones in our system communicate between the organs.
Of these, the androgenic hormones
(testosterone) control production of sebum that
is responsible for keeping the skin moist and supple.
However, a misbalanced testosterone will be unable to
control the production, resulting in excess oil produced
by the sebum glands, causing a blockage. The holistic
way of managing the disease condition involves in
correcting the misbalance through change of lifestyle,
change of diet, etc, thereby ensuring appropriate
production of sebum.
Toxic buildup occurs within the
body which accumulates within the blood stream and the
lymph glands through consumption of fast food, junk
food, mucus food (acidic), carbonated beverages,
alcohol, etc. They remain stuck within the system as the
body's cleansing organs that include the liver, kidneys,
colon, lungs and the skin fail to eradicate them.
However, the holistic all natural therapy helps these
vital body organs in releasing the toxins forever,
leaving a much purer body to deal with Acne Necrotica
in a satisfactory
way.
Treating
the body as whole, holistic remedies fights all the
causes that lead to the formation of scalp
pimples. And when the causes are defeated from the
inside, the pimples go away on their own,
naturally.
