HEALTH Lawrence E. Lamb, M.D. Teen acne problems By Lawrence E. Lamb, M.D. DEAR DR. LAMB -1 am a high school girl of 15 and have begun to have some pimples and I aip worried. Please send me The Health Letter on acne. I’ve used some creams for acne but nothing seems to help. I need some help before this problem gets any worse. DEAR READER — As you know this is a very common problem. Unfortunately many of the things people do to treat acne actually make it worse. I don’t know what kinds of creams you have been using but any cream that contains an oily base of any type should not be used. The problem is too much oil in the first place. Acne is caused by an over production of an oily sub stance called sebum by your sebaceous glands. This results in blackheads, white heads and pimples. The pimple usually forms because of the action of special bacteria that live inside the hair shaft at tached to the sebaceous gland. These bacteria break down the oil and fats forming irritating fatty acids. The fat ty acids cause the inflamma tion. You need help and I am sen ding you The Health Letter number 8-2, Acne Can Be Treated, that you requested. Others who want this informa tion can send 50 cents with a long, stamped, self-addressed envelope for it. Just address your request to me in care of this newspaper, P.O. Box 1551, Radio City Station, New York, NY 10019. Keeping the face clean and free of oil is half the battle, but overscrubbing which in jures the skin may make matters worse. DEAR DR. LAMB - A few months ago I joined a health club where they have jogging tracks, swimming pool and a whirlpool. Sometimes I go several times a week, other times I might be a couple of weeks without going. When we POLLY'S POINTERS Polly Cramer 1 h>k' Soap scores on ceramics POLLY’S PROBLEM DEAR POLLY — What should I use to clean the white ceramic tile around my kitchen sink, so it will not be harmed? - MRS. F.L.M. DEAR MRS. F.L.M. — Ceramic tiles are easy to clean. Just wash with a sponge wrung out in warm mild soap suds. Then rinse with a sponge wrung out of clear warm water. Rub dry with a soft cloth. — POLLY. DEAR POLLY — I am answering Mrs. C.C.W. who asked how to remove burned food from aluminum cooking utensils. I always boil them with a mixture of water and cream of Tar tar. I put about one teaspoon of the cream of tartar in a quart of water and boil for 20 to 30 minutes. This is even recommended on the side of the cream of tartar can. — L.B. DEAR POLLY — My Pet Peeve is with the lack of ink used on the sales slips at the grocery stores. I often shop for others and find I cannot read the prices on the adding machine lists. - MILDRED. DEAR POLLY — To have shiny and streak-free windows, use windshield washer fluid diluted with equal parts of water. Apply with a sponge or spray bottle. Dry with a clean lint free cloth or paper towels. I use this method on both the inside and outside of my windows. — GENEVIEVE. DEAR POLLY — When going on a camping trip take along three plastic dishpans, two of one color and the other a different color. You can then easily remember that the two of the same color are for doing the dishes and the other one is for washing face and hands. If the food containers, refrigerator or ice chest in your camper have odors present after being stored for the winter, a good way to get rid of them is to put a few charcoal briquets on a foil plate, put this inside of the smelly container and close the lid. - COLLEEN. DEAR POLLY — I have a small plant with the pot in a saucer standing on my coffee table. While watering it, some ran over from the saucer and left a big water mark on the table. I rubbed the water mark with smooth peanut butter, let it stand for a few minutes and then wiped it off with a soft cloth. The mark had disappeared. — ESTHER.

I have just found out that I am pregnant (about five weeks) and I am wondering if it is safe to keep going to the club — jogging and exer cising. My husband and I have been wanting a child for a few years and we certainly would not want to risk a mis carriage. By the way, several of the exercises for most females are for the stomach. DEAR READER - How much exercise a woman should do during her pregnan cy is an individual matter. A woman with a history of mis carriages might need different mangement than a woman who has had no such problems. You need to be under the care of an obstetrician and let him decide what you should do for exercise and for your diet. Don't follow any fad diets or so called health diets you may encounter in the “health club” environment. Ask your doctor about it first. In general, healthy women who are pregnant can remain fairly active. Many doctors have their parents walk regularly to stay in fairly good shape. Delivering a baby is really an athletic event and the woman in good physical condition is able to go through childbirth with the least amount of difficulty. Unless a woman is prone to miscarriages, moderate physical activity during pregnancy is not likely to cause problems. One of my professors of obstetrics was fond of saying that an apple is not so likely to fall from a tree until it is ripe. The application being that the biggest concern about physical activity is real ly as a woman approaches term and birth is imminent. (NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN.)
