I always assumed the little bumps on my back was acne however, I now have a few on my chest and my back gets a little itchy now whereas before it didn’t. My back is a bit oily to the touch. I googled causes and all these frightening things popped up, bed bugs, scabies etc.
Here’s a photo of my back:

Any ideas would be appreciated.
Can I use this one lotion with 0.5 salicylic acid in it.
I've got backne, face acne, acne on my shoulders AND my chest. Ughhh it's like being a teenager all over again.
I suffer from what I believe to be rosacea; red blotches beneath my cheekbones. I have acne on my back, and often break out on my chest. I have tried everything, from lotions, to rubbing alcohol. I am in desperate need of help. I hope to one day become an actress, however, I feel that my skin conditions have, and will continue, to hold me back. Do you have any advise? I considered visiting a dermatologist’s office, but lack the financial stability to do so at the present time. Help?
I am getting itchy acne on my back I'm having a boy and my doctor said its a sign of my body reacting to baby boy's testosterone hormone and there's nothing I can do about it I've tried oatmeal baths different lotions nothing helps wearing clothes and bras makes the itch unbearable :(
Pat it dry and do not rub it. Avoid picking or pressing the acne. You can also use Benzoyl peroxide 5% lotion or gel once at bedtime. An amount of lotion the size of a pea should be enough to cover most of your face. If your skin becomes red or peels, you are using too much of the medicine or applying it too often.
Back and shoulder acne are quite difficult to treat compared to acne on other parts of the body.
s opinion on the effectiveness of Accutane on smaller acne heads. My acne is on my face, neck, back, and chest. There are not very many big acne heads (I have benzoyl peroxide5%, Differin 3%, and Minocyclin 100 mg twice a day). These medications play a big part in my not having many big zits.
Anyways, I have lots of little acne heads all over. How effective is Accutane at getting rid of these heads and keeping them off? (from your experience or from official sources)
Thanks!
t even think it was baby acne anymore! but it turned out it was acne it was just so so bad they actually put neostatin(the diaper rash cream) on it, sorry I know that's not spelled right. we even went and got aveno but it didn't work for brody but u can try it for ur baby! it took about 4 months to get better but he still breaks out some.he has really sensitive skin!

If your skin becomes red or peels, you are using too much of the medicine or applying it too often. If the symptoms persist then topical antibiotics like Clindamycin may be needed. Please consult a dermatologist in that case.
I sincerely hope it helps. Take care and regards.
Fearing that those would leave me marks I went to dermatologist and was prescribed acne clear gel, hidrate lotion and adaferin gel. I have been using acne gel and hidrate lotion from one month my acne settled well. But from last 3 days I am getting very bad white flakes on face. My face is tight and some time applying lotion burns my face. White flakes have appeared first time on my face.
I am very scared does this resembles dermatitis? I also have little bit itching on face.
I am glad I was able to find a free blog. I need some advice. I am starting to worry about my body acne. I don't have body acne when I was in my hometown until I went abroad. I had a couple of unsafe sex but I never been too active on it. I started to observe that I'm getting body acne specially on my chest, back and arms. I started using antibiotic cream to stop the spread of body acne. But still, it is still evident.I'm getting body acne.
I have the same problem. This is my second pregnancy. I had it much worse during my first though. I break out on my face and chest mostly, sometimes on my back. I've just been wwashing my face and stuff especially at night. Its not as bad as the first time, but still makes me not want to go out in public.

If the symptoms persist then topical and oral antibiotics may be needed. My advice would be to consult a dermatologist.
Hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries.
