I have really bad acne my back any help??

Question

I've tried clear pore stuff but it doesn't seem to work!!

Answer 1

Back acne frequently requires Accutane.  Acne on the shoulders and back responds very well to treatment with Accutane -- most patients with acne on their back don't experience a recurrence.  (Acne on the face is more difficult to treat, for reasons that aren't clearly understood.)  Acne on the back is very difficult to treat with topical products because clothing rubs off any leave-on treatment, and washes frequently just aren't strong enough to treat it effectively.  You need to see a dermatologist, who may try antibiotics first, but Accutane can provide long-term relief from back acne after just a few months of treatment.  Even if you don't have insurance, it's still worth it because it will prevent scarring.  

Answer 2

Acne is bacteria.  Try Purell Hand Sanitizer twice daily.

Answer 3

i would get one of those back scrubbers or a loofah, and some acne cleansing body wash (something like....... neutrogena) and wash daily

Answer 4

Often fewer products are better.  People often make their acne worse by using too many products.  There is no quick fix for acne.  Your doctor may recommend some prescription medication.  Keep your face very clean.  Drink plenty of water.  Eat a nutritious diet and get enough sleep.  Try to reduce the stress in your life.  Probably the most useful and effective things you can do are to apply hot compresses to pustules and cysts and never to pick or squeeze pimples. Playing with or popping pimples, no matter how careful and clean you are, nearly always makes bumps stay redder and bumpier longer.   Here are a few informative links with additional home treatment ideas.
