Acne excoreatum

2015-08-01 06:46:18
So I have a compulsive habit of breaking pimples which has resulted in scars. I have realised I do this more when I'm stressed. I was told it's called Acne excoreatum. Is there a cure? If yes would it be dermatological or psychiatric? Thank you in advance, doctor.
