Acne from Helmet Usage
Hello, I have had a sudden breakout of acne in certain parts of my face like around the ear, ear lobes, forehead, temples and the back of the neck. Wearing a helmet is the only plausible variable, the timing of which coincides with the breakout.
Can you please advise on how to take care of the helmet? Is there any medical solution or spray that I can use regularly inside the helmet?
Thank you.

It can be cleared...Acne or pimples... Due to hormonal changes..Oily skin causes it...Common in adolescent age...May occur in adults also.. Food like Oily foods, ice cream, chocolate and sweets increase it.. Treatment depends on the grade of pimples or acne..So, please send photos by direct online consultation as it's a must to see which grade of pimples or acne for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Helmet my be the exacerbating factor but there must be an underlying predisposition for developing acne. I don't think a single spray can help you treat these acne or prevent new ones. You can regularly clean helmet and wash your face with gentle cleanser, it might help a little.
I would advise you to get a consult and adequate treatment.
