It seems like around the time I started using Creatine my acne started to a get a little worse. Is it possible that creatine is the cause of this?

i noticed my acne did seem to get a little worse when i was using creatine in high school, then again i was doing a bunch of working out so it could have been a hygiene issue, crap clogging your pores

This has happened to me after I take a break from using it for a while and pick it back up, seems to go away after a few weeks. I will usually get a few on my back and arms which I never get otherwise, so I do think there's something to this.
