BACKGROUND: WHAT’S GOING ON DOWN THERE?

In For the Nasty Results - Infection and Poisoning

Frequent picking of pimples and scabs will often result in chronic infected eruptions. A chronic condition means you have gone from something that happens once or twice to something that will keep coming back over and over again.

Septicemia or blood poisoning can develop quickly anytime the skin is broken and bacteria is present. It is a very serious condition because most of the bodies defense system is focused outside of the bloodstream. It first appears as a rash under the skin which look like tiny red spots anywhere on the body. When left untreated the spots spread and begin to look like fresh bruises due to the excess bleeding under the skin.

Staphylococcal (Staph) Infections can be confused with P. Acnes infections because they both start at the skin level. “Staphylococci are normal inhabitants of the nose, skin and hair follicles of most healthy people. A staph infection can begin with a single infected hair follicle called folliculitus. What forms next is what looks like a single pimple or a furuncle or a cluster of linked pimples or carbuncles. The staph bacteria is a cause of many common skin or wound infections, but have more serious consequences. When staph spreads it can cause extensive tissue degeneration and lead to more serious infections in other body systems such as pneumonia.
