Acne on back

[silencer_]

Do you guys get acne on your back? How do you get rid of it? what's the cause of it, is it because of protein shakes?

I dont have that much acne, but you can notice it.. How do you get rid of it..

I use pantothenic acid (vit B-5) at 5000mgs/day and that has helped quite a bit. Takes a week or two to "kick in", but does seem to really help.

asdf

would a multivitamin pill be okay? When I take those, sometimes I urine BRIGHT YELLOW for some reason, does this mean I need to drink more water or something?

I had mad back acne from age 13-15. What killed it, thoroughly and forever, was a few months on accutane. Ask your dermatologist about it. It completely destroys all bodily acne, and in the majority of cases will keep it off.

I get some big ass pimples on my back... and Im 2 weeks from 22....

I dont have any advice to get rid of them as I dont really care that much...

And its normal pissing neon yellow after taking vitamin B... dont worry about it..

 

[jeremys]

i have it..i think it's mostly genetic.

pissing yellow is normal after taking a multivitamin, especially a b-complex.

I take Tetracycline orally and Vitaman A acid topically.

look for a body/face soap with 2-3% salicyclic acid. it the best over the counter for back acne.

I have pretty bad acne on my back. I went to Mexico for spring break and when I came back it got super bad. I have no clue why that could be. Anyways I have found that Benzac wash works really well, but it is perscription only.

i used to get pretty crappy acne from about 14-16

I was on roaccutane for bout 6 months and i rarely get pimples any more. But roaccutane is fucking potent and not many people do it coz of the fucked up side effects of it but i will admit that it works a charm. Something u need to discuss with your dermatologist.

If i ever get a pimple i put some benzac ac on it. In australia you can buy it from the pharmacy, dont know about US. That dries it up so it doesnt get all inflammed and shit. This is another option.

Try herabl logix acne spray. Worked wonders for me.

Salicyclic acid, ask at the pharmacy you can buy it OTC but usually they keep it behind the counter...go figure. If your pissing yellow drink more water

I take Tetracycline orally and Vitaman A acid topically.

I used tetracycline briefly in my late teens, and it ruined my teeth. Before I was 18 I didn't have any cavities. I'm 29 now and I've probably had 5 or fewer trips to the dentist since then where something wasn't wrong. I got second opinions, because I couldn't believe my teeth would go downhill so fast, and didn't know Tetra was that bad. When I got my wisdom teeth pulled, the surgeon knew that I had took Tetra because they were BLACK and he'd seen it before in other people. Solved a mystery for me! I brush, floss and take calcium supps so it had me puzzled for years.

Basically, watch out for that stuff cause you could be paying for it forever.
