Eating eggs does not directly cause acne for most people. Acne is primarily influenced by factors like hormones, genetics, and skin care habits rather than specific foods. However, some individuals might notice that certain foods, including eggs, seem to worsen their acne, possibly due to personal sensitivities or allergies.

Here are a few key points to consider:

  1. Hormonal changes during adolescence can increase oil production in the skin, leading to acne.
  2. Dietary impact on acne varies; while some studies suggest high-glycemic foods or dairy might influence acne, eggs are not commonly linked.
  3. Individual reactions differ; if you suspect eggs worsen your skin, you might try eliminating them for a few weeks to see if there’s improvement.
  4. Maintaining a balanced diet, good skin hygiene, and consulting a dermatologist if acne is persistent or severe is important.

If you have concerns about your skin or diet, a healthcare professional can provide personalized advice and treatment options tailored to your needs.

I'm using Sternons lotion for psoriasis based on my doctor's advice, applying it to the middle fingernail of my left hand because of the nail pitting. But now my whole body is itching. Could this be a side effect of the lotion, or is there something else going on? I've been using it for three days and I'm taking Viterma capsules too. What do you think?

Sternon-S lotion contains steroids, which can have side effects, especially with prolonged use. The itching sensation on your entire body could be due to: 1. Steroid-induced itching: A known side effect of topical steroid use. 2. Allergic reaction: You might be allergic to one of the lotion's ingredients. 3. Systemic absorption: Although unlikely, it's possible that the steroid is being absorbed into your bloodstream, causing itching. Other factors to consider: 1. Viterma capsule: Interactions between the capsule and the lotion might be contributing to the itching. 2. Psoriasis itself: Psoriasis can cause itching, and the lotion might not be fully addressing the underlying condition.Stop using the lotion: Temporarily discontinue use to see if the itching subsides.
