What is your diagnosis of the pimples that appear after masturbation, and were the acts of masturbation and looking at lewd images predestined and preordained?

We ask God to accept your repentance. Know that all humans err, and the one who repents from a sin is like one who has committed no sin. You must strive against yourself, purify your intention, and seek Allah's help to remove the intensity of lust from you. Allah has promised guidance to those who strive against themselves. Counter the extent of the sin with the extent of repentance, just as you counter hunger with eating. Seek out righteous friends in the mosque, in circles of remembrance, and in gatherings of knowledge. As for illnesses, you can consult the specialized counseling section.
