The skin contains thousands of sebaceous glands that produce sebum (oil) that moisturizes and protects the functioning of the skin. Sebum produced by sebaceous glands distributed through the hair follicles (pores) to the skin surface. Acne occurs when sebum that normally come out to the skin surface is blocked. Facial skin has a density of high sebaceous glands, particularly in the nose, forehead and cheeks. Largest sebaceous glands are in the middle of the chest and back. Therefore, acne most often appears on the face, chest and back.

Whitehead (blackheads closed)
Abnormalities in the form of a small nodule with a small hole or no hole because sebum is usually accompanied by the bacteria accumulate in the skin follicles and can not get out.
Blackhead (open blackheads)
Open blackheads is usually a further development of the closed blackheads, occurs when the follicles open at the skin surface so that the sebum, which contains the skin pigment melanin, oxidized and turned into a brown / black. Blackhead can last long because the drying process of blackheads on the skin surface was slow.
Inflammatory lesions
Papel (papule)
Papel occurs when the walls of the hair follicle is damaged or broken so that white blood cells out and going inflammation in the lining of the skin. Papel-shaped lumps bumps on the skin soft kemerahaan without a head. This type of acne is often called the laity as “acne stone.”

Types of Breast Cancer
Cancer February 10th, 2010
There are several types of breast cancer, but most often are two types: ductal and lobular carcinoma carcionoma. Ductal carcinoma is a cancer that appears in the ductus or pipelines that transport in the breast milk. Cancer lobular carcinoma was found in the lobules or milk-making glands. Cancer has not spread beyond the ductus or lobules is called in-situ means “in place”. When it spreads, it is called invasive or infiltrating.
Ductal Carcinoma
In ductal carcinoma in-situ cancer was only along the channel bonding. At this stage, nearly 100% of cancer patients can be cured. The easiest way to identify ductal carcinoma in-situ is a mammogram on a regular basis / annually. You can also check it yourself with a technique called breast self-examination (breast self-check).
If allowed, ductal carcinoma eventually spread into surrounding tissue. ASI channel wall thinning and eventually burst, then the cancer had spread. The spread can be limited at around the origin of cancer, but can also throughout the body (metastatic) via the blood circulation. The spread especially to the lymph glands in the armpits and other organs such as bone, liver and lungs. Approximately 70% of breast cancers are invasive ductal carcinoma.
Lobular carcinoma
In lobular carcinoma in-situ (also called lobular neoplasia), cancer is still not penetrate the lobule walls. Potentially invasive lobular carcinoma metastase and spread to other body parts, starting from the breast fat tissue. Approximately 10-15% of breast cancers are invasive lobular carcinoma. This type of cancer does not always cause a lump, but only makes the affected tissue thickening that can be difficult to be detected.
Paget’s Disease
Types of breast cancer is the most rare breast cancer, known as Paget’s disease. The spread of these cancers begin spreading from the ductus and into the skin around the nipple and areola (the dark circles around the nipple). The skin around the nipple often feels rough, freckled, red and bleeding. Patients will feel itchy and hot.
