Okay so I have pimples on my back, and I use this clean and clear stuff on it, and it helps, but sometimes it gets bad, and I'm very self conscious of this. I having pimples on your back normal? Is it normal to feel this way?
okay first off...it has nothing to do with how often you wash. so dont listen to people that say you are not clean enough. you may need medication to stop the overgrowth of bacteria. what acne really is, is your skin overeacting to bacteria on the skin. I DO HAVE ANOTHER BIT OF ADICE THAT SEEMS TO WORK THOUGH. Most doctors will tell you to stay out of the sun if you have acne especially if you are on meds for it BUT i found that if you take the sun (maybe in your back yard if you feel bad about doing it in public) it clears up faster. It will dry up your skin and the tan will toughen swollen or raw skin. Ocean water also helps.
I have pimples on my back too but I havent done anything about it. im just hoping they will go away
It is normal, stupid people above me. It's called bacne. Wash your back more often and it should go away.
i had the same thing, go to a doctor and get some powerful skin antibiotics it will kill the bacteria
mine was really bad and disgusting but the skin medicine made it go away in a few weeks
i don't have 'em, but i get them under my chin from shaving. i got other problems, like excessive hair. worse than pimples, 'cause it's harder to shave an ass than rub cream on a back.
That's so common they even have a popular name for it: Bacne.
I know several girls (even myself) who aren't really bothered by it if it's not an extreme case because it's just one of those things that happens and as much as a person does to get rid of it, it's simply the course of nature. I've also met several people who don't mind popping their friend or boyfriend's zits. It's kind of weird but I think that's actually common too.
Pimples on the back are fairly common. It's because sweat usually runs down your neck and onto your back. I have it too, and it's annoying. I'd recommend sitting outside in the sun and tanning your back. The sun helps to disinfect bacteria and dry off some of the pimples
Yeah that's totally normal it's call bacne lol.. Some girls also get acne on their chests : p
right I'm gunna get straight to this, I had the most horrific spot problem, long hair doesn't help but anyway... I went to my Doc and told them I had used all the stuff they show on TV and weird myths but none worked. within 5 mins she subscribed some kinda lotion thingy for me, its got like zinc and stuff in it I dunno, but I've only had it for a month or 2 and I am clear, back smooth, I've got 1 or 2 on my face but hell, who doesn't. I would seriously recommend this, its super cheap and easy to apply.
one word: accutane. Use it and lose it, i had the worst acne anyone could ever think of and now my face and body is completely clear.
yeah just make sure not to wear too tight of clothing because when you do your skin doesn't breathe well therefore clogging your pores. alot of teens get this, it's nickname is "backne", it rhymes with acne.
yes you should make an attempt to dry it out..
ive learned that there are quite a few things that dry your skin such as rubbing alcohol and toothpaste (though i dont advise this for your back lol).
But sun hmmm it isnt good for your skin overall.. i mean overexposure to it.
Actually i was wondering about a similar problem myself.
when i was younger i used to have this... well it seemed alot like acne, on my arms.. it wasnt quite, it was sort of a bumpy rash under the skin. it didnt itch, it didnt hurt, it was just there. My mom had it and her father had it, and my older brother still has it.. but i outgrew it luckily. do u think it could be hereditary?
take care
use a body wash that takes it away like the brand 'OXY' trust me this works
My boyfriend has them. I don't know if they are normal but he seems OK. I want to know why that happens myself.
