What are subcutaneous acne on the forehead?

The forehead is a natural area where acne is likely to occur. The T-shaped part of the face (chin, nose, forehead) has the highest content of sebaceous glands. The area near the forehead is also susceptible to subcutaneous rashes because the skin there is much thicker.

The glands secrete a significant amount of fat; due to contamination or malfunction, it does not find a way out, and thus a rash appears on the forehead in the form of small white pimples.

In a situation where the problem is not addressed in a timely manner, optimal conditions arise for the proliferation of harmful bacteria. Inflammation occurs and in place of small white bumps, the entire area of ​​the forehead is surrounded by red pimples.

Pimples on the forehead form in much the same way as on other parts of the body. The oil produced by the sebaceous glands is extremely important for the proper functioning of the skin. Fat helps create a protective film on the body that reliably protects it from external adverse factors - cold, heat, rain.

At the same time, subcutaneous fat, mixing with sweat and dust, clogs the mouth of the glands with plugs. The secretion produced by the glands cannot find its way out; it accumulates in the sebaceous ducts.

This is an excellent environment for the intensive proliferation of harmful bacteria. An inflammatory process occurs, suppuration forms and, as a result, a subcutaneous tumor near the forehead.

They appear gradually: initially a slight compaction forms under the skin. It is characterized by slight pain and rapid growth, then an inflammatory process is added. This type of acne develops over a long period of time, causing pain and discomfort. It happens that ripening can take weeks.

The sebaceous ducts will be completely engulfed in inflammation and it will not be possible to get rid of the manifestations soon. When a large amount of purulent content accumulates, quite large nodes form under the skin. In some cases, cystic neoplasms may appear.

Causes

When acne on the forehead appears extremely often, the first thing you should do is change your skin care and balance your diet. If such measures are not crowned with positive results, therefore, the provoking factor must be sought through medical diagnosis.

The causes of subcutaneous tumors in the forehead area are:

  • Hormonal disorder. For example, during pregnancy or the menstrual cycle in women, the content of fat produced increases. This will be the cause of acne formation. By normalizing the hormonal balance, everything will go away on its own. However, there are more serious factors - female diseases (hyperandrogenism). In the presence of such symptoms, acne develops. Its development indicates the need for additional diagnostics and therapy selected by a specialist.
  • Inadequate facial skin care In the process of using cosmetics of poor quality, comedogenic drugs and if hygiene rules are not followed, the body gives alarm signals about malfunctions in the form of a rash in the forehead.
  • Unbalanced diet . Food plays a key role in the condition of the skin. Abuse of harmful allergenic products, chemical additives, fried, salty and sweet foods in unlimited quantities provokes the formation of a rash on the skin of the face.
  • Dysfunction of the gastrointestinal tract. The appearance of acne on the forehead often indicates unstable bowel function.
  • Excessively cold or hot temperature. The skin has protective functions; a natural reaction to an increase or decrease in temperature indicators will be increased functioning of the sebaceous glands. In hot weather, they should protect the skin from burning, and in cold weather, from frostbite.
  • Irritation. A subcutaneous rash on the forehead can occur due to an allergy to improperly selected fabrics and clothing materials. For example, when a headdress does not fit in size, touches the skin tightly, or is made of artificial material, this contributes to the formation of unpleasant acne. They can only go away after the allergen is eliminated.
  • Medications . Often, the occurrence of a rash can be facilitated by the use of antibiotics and contraception.

When the forehead is covered with pimples, but the patient is able to fully limit the impact of irritating factors, then it is necessary to understand what internal causes can cause the rash.

In a situation where the occurrence of a rash in the forehead is a common occurrence, and it is characterized by an inflammatory process, you should contact a specialist for examination.

Symptoms

Due to the further formation of inflammation, infection of the damaged area with bacteria that are constantly present on the human skin, an internal purulent pustule appears.

On the outside, this phenomenon is a white or yellow growth that protrudes above the skin and has no way out. Since the pus is completely hidden by a layer of skin, it is extremely difficult to eliminate such a formation.

In certain situations, the accumulation of significant amounts of pus leads to the rapid development of a rash. During advanced pathology, large nodes will give the skin its characteristic bumpiness and bright red color.

Pimples in the forehead area may not form purulent pustules for a long time, causing itching, discomfort, and pain when touched. Small internal pimples are often located, in addition to the forehead, on the nose and lips, causing general inflammation in these areas.

When the disease is caused by a subcutaneous mite, the rash is multiple, has an unnatural reddish tint and is localized under a thin layer of skin. In some situations, symptoms are supplemented by itching and flaking.

Diagnostics

In order to establish the root cause of a rash on the forehead, it is necessary to seek help from a qualified dermatologist, in particular when the rash constantly forms and does not go away while using various ointments and gels. Self-treatment should be stopped, as these actions can only aggravate the situation and lead to a deterioration in the condition of the skin.

The doctor carefully examines the skin on the face, and when necessary, prescribes a scraping for pathogenic bacteria (staphylococcus, subcutaneous mites or other microorganisms). When the situation involves complex diagnostics, consultation with other specialized specialists is prescribed:

  • Gastroenterologist. It checks the entire gastrointestinal tract for the presence of pathological processes, during which the skin itself removes substances unnecessary in the body. In such a situation, toxins clog the sebaceous ducts of the epidermis and provoke the occurrence of a rash.
  • Gynecologist. A rash on the forehead in women is often associated with gynecological difficulties. By visiting a specialist, you can prevent the risk of ovarian diseases. Diagnosis is carried out using an ultrasound machine, which makes it possible to detect the pathological process at the initial stage.
  • Endocrinologist. A problem with a rash on the forehead may indicate hormonal imbalances. The doctor recommends a blood test to verify the need for the chosen therapy and to prescribe effective medications.
