Back and Shoulder Acne ???

Question

I have a lot of back, and shoulder acne.

In the shower I wash my back and shoulders and sometimes I use a scrubber, then immediately after my shower I dry off my back.

What should I do to get rid of it ?

Answer 1

Back and shoulder acne is usually caused by two different things:

1.  Stress

2.  Dairy products

So try drinking more plain water each day, at least 64 ounces.  Cut down on your consumption of dairy products.  And do some sort of stress-relieving activity every day.  

If you exercise a lot, be sure to shower afterward to wash off the sweat which can contribute to the acne as well. Shower using warm water (not hot water) so your skin doesn't get too dried out.

Things should clear up on their own if you follow these suggestions.  If if doesn't clear up, then go to see a dermatologist.

Answer 2

You sound like you have a skin condition that i once had when i was younger.

Go to your GP and he/she will presccribe you with a lotion (I forgot what this is called)

If this is serious, you may get referred to a gyno and they will prescribe you with some steroid body wash.

Hope this has helped. Good luck

Answer 3

i used to have the same problem but its almost gone now

i'd recommend talking to your doctor about getting an oral prescription medication, but you have to be ready for the commitment and know that i won't take affect right away. i did and i've seen amazing results

best of luck with whatever you choose! i know acne can be a real bummer
