Jo - Proprionibacterium acnes

[Guest guest]

Proprionibacterium acnes is a/the(?) cuase of acne. I've heard about

a suspicion or maybe finding of Proprionibacterium acnes as a cause

of systemic disease - I know nothing about it and have no opinion.

Hi ,

That's really interesting, I did a bit of research to-day and it does

seem to be involved in systemic disease.

Here are the links I looked at. Running out of mental energy right now,

I think it will take me some time to process

and work out whether it might be relevant to me.
