Acne

[chaovivi]

lately I've been getting acne on my cheeks. I think the cause is stress and hormonal changes.
They come at first as little white head bumps and I started to pick at them [I now regret that] because they have gotten worse, and I have acne scarring.
I also get deep under the surface blemishes on my cheeks which is painful, and they take forever to come to the surface.

While I try to smooth my problem it feels like its getting worse. My dermatologist appointment isn't till 3 more weeks and I would like to know anything that I can do now to heal it and not make it worse.
