Inflammatory Acne Advice

There are two types of inflammatory acne, papule and pustule. The first type of inflammatory acne is the papule.

Papule

A papule occurs when there is a break in the follicular wall. White blood cells rush in and the pore becomes inflamed.

Pustule

The second type of inflammatory acne is the pustule. A pustule forms several days after the papule when white blood cells make their way to the surface of the skin. This is what people usually refer to as a "zit" or a "pimple". An inflamed lesion can sometimes completely collapse or explode, severely inflaming the surrounding skin, and sometimes engulfing neighboring follicles.
