What Is A Zit?
What Is A Zit?Author: Richard SutterSimply stated, a zit and a pimple are one in the same. In fact, the word zit, is American slang for the word pimple. Therefore, in the same way we define a pimple, a zit is a small skin inflammation or infection that arises most often because of clogged pores. There isn't anyone who is immune to having a zit. It can attack anyone. The zit is not partial to any specific age, gender, ethnicity or location. To make matters worse, a zit can appear on any part of your body, as long as skin is present.
What Causes A Zit? There are many factors that attribute to the cause of zit outbreaks. One major factor is hygiene. A zit occurs when the skin is not thoroughly cleaned. When skin is left dirty, oil glands clog the pores and prevent hair follicles from growing. This causes small, itchy, sometimes painful bumps on your skin. On severe occasions, untreated zits can cause pus. Stress is also a major factor in zit outbreaks.
While most people believe that stress is simply a state of mind, it can also affect how your body performs. If you fail to take care of your physical and psychological well-being, be assured that a zit can very possibly appear. The common recipients of zits are adolescents.
Changing hormones often lead to certain bodily reactions which cause breakouts. This is the most contributory cause of acne. More often than not, zit outbreaks will go away for the most part after adolescence.

The anxiety of debt is causing people to foreclose their housing loans at a tremendous rate. Foreclosing a house loan immediately reduces the value of surrounding homes by nearly 9 percent. That has a knock on effect – dropped home prices means that houseowners increasingly owe more on their house loan than the actual market worth of the house. |
