Discussion Forum Module 9 Answer 

Acne is a skin condition typically experienced by teenagers. However, this type of condition is not limited among teens as it can be experienced by anyone at different age. Acne develops when the hair follicle gets clogged up with dirt, oil, and dead skin cells (Goodman). Common symptoms of acne include black heads, white heads, pustules, papules, and cystic lesion (e-Silva and Carneiro). Acne typically appears on the face, chest, back, forehead, and shoulders. Among the commonly identified causes of acne include clogged hair follicles, bacteria, inflammation, and sebum production (e-Silva and Carneiro).
