Contradiction?

[edit]

"They usually have white or yellow color, and can be expressed from the skin by pinching."

"Unlike blackheads, however, they cannot be removed and are a permanent part of the human skin. "

These statements seem to contradict each other. Dforest (talk) 04:46, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I browsed the history, and it appears the latter statement ("Unlike blackheads ... permanent part of the human skin.") has been added, removed, then added back. While the former statement has a cited source, the latter statement does not. I believe we should remove the latter statement. If a source is found, I think it would be best to reword the statement before adding it back in. It looks like the intended meaning is something like this: "Unlike blackheads, their removal is not permanent, because they are regenerated by the sebaceous glands."

Further Development

[edit]

Probably a head about management, it's epidemiology since its apparent that it's permanent. Toyusus (talk) 08:51, 15 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
