How did people take care of skin problems in the past? Shit like cysts, skin tags, and the whole shebang.
By lancing them.
Though I'm willing to bet it was much, much less frequent because their endocrine systems, diets and air quality weren't completly fucked beyond repair like ours.

Just imagine the infection rates.
I do believe herbal remedies and compresses were much more common than outright lancing shit.

Pretty much this. A lot of skin problems are due to contemporary circumstances.

The Old Testament had decrees what to do when people had acne, it isn't a new issue.

Well yeah I didn't say people were completely free of acne but it is partially caused by lack of vitamin D, wrong nutrition, medication and psychological stress.

It is, it doesnt mean acne it means warts and shite.
Acne is a modern western problem, no one in any tribe has acne, as soon as they move to a city and adopt a modern life they can get acne.
Trust me i had severe acne, i researched the shit out of it.
I dunno, but it'd be hell on my eczema. Prolly

It sounds more like bullshit you swallowed from people trying to plug organic food.

It's a pretty known fact actually. Obviously there are people who have a genetic predisposition towards getting acne, but for the vast majority of people getting pimples and shit is directly linked to your diet.
I've been eating like a rabbit for the last few weeks and my skin has become incredibly clear. If I eat incredibly oily stuff, I start getting pimples on my forehead (though not a lot, I never had a lot of pimples).
