There is a common problem between teenagers that everyone suffers from it, it is called ACNE.
Acne is a pimple outbreak at some point in live which is a normal and physiologic cycle but, HOW TO PREVENT IT?
INTRODUCTION:
Acne generally starts when secretions from the skin's sebaceous glands (oil glands) plug the tiny openings for hair follicles (plugged pores). If the openings are large, the clogs take the form of blackheads: small, flat spots with dark centers. If the openings stay small, the clogs take the form of whiteheads: small, flesh-colored bumps. Both types of plugged pores can develop into swollen, tender inflammations or pimples or deeper lumps or nodules. Nodules associated with severe cases of acne(cystic acne) are firm swellings below the skin's surface that become inflamed, tender, and sometimes infected.
Most Common Age for Acne
Acne can occur in any age group. But it is fairly common in teenagers.
Starting from the stages of puberty till the moment one is of age, there is a high risk that they can develop acne.

- Pressure: In some patients, pressure from helmets, chin straps, collars, suspenders, and the like can aggravate acne.
- Drugs: Some medications may cause or worsen acne, such as those containing iodides, bromides, or oral or injected steroids.

- Cosmetics: Some cosmetics and skin-care products are pore clogging ("comedogenic").
"The best doctor give the least medicine to the patient" says Benjamin Franklin.
Many doctors today says that, Prevention is Better than the Treatment, and so it is. But if you have pimple on your face first determine which foods cause it and stop using them for example your reaction might be with dry-fruits or maybe with hot-pepper, when you found the cause of your food and stopped eating it; try to keep your face dry for some day or maybe one week (if your face is oily). If you noticed the changes know that by continuing this method you won't have more pimples after a month BUT, if it is not worked you need to get some ointment medicine for it but NEVER EVER TRY TO TAKE MEDICINES WITHOUT YOUR DOCTOR'S PERMIT.
One Important thing that you should never ever do it is squeezing your pimples.
