Acne In Face. Does Sitting In Front Of Computer Too Long Causes Acne?
Hello. I have a question regarding acne.
For about 2-3 weeks now, my face has gotten more and more acne growing. There are several small dots as well as big zits. I've been drinking 3 litter of water everyday hoping to stop the growth. However, it does not seem to go away. I also wash my face every night before sleep and in the morning too. But it does not work at all.
I think maybe I sit in front of a computer screen for too long everyday. That'd be the cause of my problem.
So do you think sitting in front of a computer for too long causes acne?
Many thanks,
Tin
