Question

name the skin glands which when inflamed cause acne

Answer 1

Bacteria. Excess sebum clogs the openings to hair follicles -- especially those on the face, neck, chest, and back. ... When this happens, sebum leaks into nearby tissues and forms a pustule or a papule -- this is called inflammatory acne. Larger, tender pustules are called nodules

Answer 2

Answer:

Acne is a common skin condition. It is caused by inflammation of the hair follicles and oil-producing (sebaceous) glands of the skin. ... The combination of the sebaceous glands and the hair follicles is the "pilosebaceous unit," where acne pimples and cysts develop. Sebum moisturizes hair and skin.
