Today, I finally saw a dermatologist due to my unusually severe acne. Now I know I actually have a rare disorder that makes me allergic to my own acne. FML

Clean up
Today, I realized that my lack of body hygiene reached a new high when I discovered a pimple growing on my penis, which I now know is genital acne. It hurts to sit down or touch my penis in any way. The worst part is that I am only thirteen. FML

Today, the pimples on my face are finally clearing up. They seem to have migrated to my ass. FML

Irony
Today, I found out that my intense acne is actually an allergic reaction to the "deep clean" product I've been using to reduce it. I've been using this product for the past ten years. Ten years of suffering through "acne" could have been easily avoided. FML

Freaked out
Today, I was talking to my parents when all of a sudden my dad started freaking out and asking my mom how I got this really bad allergy on my face. My mom just laughed, and then I had to explain to him that it was just my acne. The worst part is that he was dead serious the whole time. FML

Today, I woke up to find that not only did the toothpaste I put on my pimple make it more noticable, but it made it worse. FML

Nice spread
Today, I got a new skin cream for my acne. I tested it on a small patch of skin just to make sure I wasn't allergic. I was, and the reaction didn't stay on that small patch of skin. My left arm is now almost entirely covered in a horrible rash. FML

what a bitch you are for assuming op is lazy. underarm acne is not a matter of being clean, it is a condition that requires specific tmt. I can't stand ppl like you.

OP: In all seriousness, consider seeing a dermatologist. People don't typically get pimples in their underarms, so you may be displaying a serious and painful skin condition known as hidradenitis suppurativa. I should know, I've had it for about 5 years. It's related to acne but it is an infection of the apocrine glands (so it will eventually appear on your groin and breast- yes, even if you are a man). It is not related to hygiene at all! I think helosoldier alluded to this disease as well, but it is called hidradenitis suppurativa, not hydrocondriasis. You can try over the counter benzoyl peroxide, but the stuff prescribed by dermatologists is stronger. Good luck, I hope it works out for you, but feel free to message me if you have any questions about it.

This is what I thought about, too. HS is awful. OP, talk to your doc/dermatologist!
