   my doc prescribed me dalacin lotion which worked for a while.

   then it came back and i got tablets called tetralysl or something, they worked pretty well.

   in the mean time,the best thing to do is keep your hands away from the infected area and wash with non perfumed soap

   Wow that sucks. I’m guessing you’ve talked to your dermatologist, but if not you should. My friend told me about something that helps. You need to boil water so it get’s really steamy, put a small towel over the pan or whatever the water’s in, and then position your face so the steam hits it. She said it shrinks your pimples until they go away. I’ve never tried it, but maybe you could. Just plz look it up or something, i dont want you to try and then burn your face off.
   sorry i dont know anything about how to get rid of the pimples on your back

   Try lavender oil. Apply this oil on the back acne everyday for minimum 15 days or else apply fresh Aloe vera juice or the gel and wash after a few hours. When washing your back use a loofah, sponge or exfoliant to help remove any dead skin cells that may clog up pores. Use a gentle action and don’t be too harsh otherwise you will end up breaking the skin. You should probably change your shirt twice a day to avoid bacteria buildup.

   Acne affects people of all ages and all races, and treating it is a slow process that requires diligence and patience. Here are some tips to help you get started.

   You Will Need –
   A gentle facial cleanser
   Warm water
   A towel
   Topical acne medication
   Sunscreen
   Patience
   A tissue
   Noncomedogenic cosmetics
   Shaving cream with benzoyl peroxide
   A dermatologist
   Prescription acne medicine
   Clorox Disinfecting Wipes

   Step 1:
   Wash your face with a gentle cleanser and warm water when you wake up in the morning and at night just before bed.

   Don’t use harsh scrubs on acne—it will only irritate and inflame the acne.

   Step 2:
   Gently pat your face dry with a towel—don’t rub, or you can extract too much moisture from your face.

   Be careful not to wash your face too much, which can irritate your skin. If you have oily skin, try blotting it with a clean tissue instead.

   Step 3:
   Apply a topical acne medication, either one prescribed by your dermatologist or an over-the-counter cream, lotion, or gel containing benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid.

   Benzoyl peroxide reduces a certain kind of bacteria on the skin and salicylic acid helps unclog pores by correcting abnormal skin cell shedding, so one might work better for you than the other.

   Step 4:
   Use Clorox Disinfecting Wipes and clean your face. This wipes all the dirt off your face/chest/back. This will get rid of the redness of pimples and lower the size.

   Tip – Use Clorox Disinfecting Wipes and wipe your pillows with it, to kill germs that can cause acne.

   Step 5:
   Protect your skin with a non-comedogenic sunscreen and avoid excess exposure to sunlight. This is always important, but it is especially critical when you’re using topical or internal acne medication, which increases skin’s photosensitivity.

   Step 6:
   Use only non-comedogenic, water-based cosmetics that are oil-free. There are moisturizers and makeup formulated for acne-prone skin.

   Step 7:
   If you shave, do so carefully and sparingly. Shaving can easily irritate sensitive skin, so only shave when it is necessary and only in one direction.

   Some shaving creams on the market contain benzoyl peroxide, so check the label.

   Step 8:
   Don’t squeeze, pop, or pinch acne. It can cause further inflammation and even permanent scarring.

   Step 9:
   Avoid actions that cause repetitive or prolonged contact with the affected area, like holding a phone against your face, wearing sports equipment, or resting your chin on your hand.

   Step 10:
   Keep your hair clean and out of your face. The natural oils in hair can contribute to acne, as can hair products that contain oil.

   Step 11:
   If you take proper care of your skin but you still have outbreaks, schedule an appointment with a dermatologist. There are different types of acne that may require different approaches in treatment.

   Step 12:
   If you’re under a dermatologist’s care, follow his or her instructions carefully. If you’re prescribed an oral medication, take it regularly.

   Step 13:
   Be patient! Fighting acne is a slow process, and there is no quick fix or immediate cure. But sooner or later you’ll win the battle—and your skin will thank you for it.

   Acne is one of the most common skin afflictions in the U.S., and 95% of those affected first suffer from it in their teens.

   BACNE -
   A random pimple or two is one thing. But if your back is covered with acne, you, my friend, have bacne.
   You Will Need
   ·Benzoyl peroxide cream
   ·Exfoliating body scrub
   ·Professional help

   Step 1:
   Treat bacne like garden-variety face zits by applying an over-the-counter pimple cream that contains 10% benzoyl peroxide.
   Benzyol peroxide can bleach fabric, so only use old shirts, sheets, and towels that you don’t mind staining when you have the product on.

   Step 2:
   Avoid wearing tight clothing like sports bras or tank tops, especially when they’re synthetic, or heavy backpacks. Loose, natural fabrics like cotton will help wick sweat away.

   Step 3:
   Always bathe immediately after exercising or sweating.

   Step 4:
   Use an exfoliating body scrub that contains salicylic acid, AHA acids, or benzoyl peroxide. This will dry out existing pimples and remove the dead skin that clogs pores. Leave it on for at least five minutes before rinsing.

   Step 5:
   Avoid wearing tight clothing like sports bras or tank tops, especially when they’re synthetic, or heavy backpacks. Loose, natural fabrics like cotton will help wick sweat away.
   Avoid hair conditioners containing panthenol, which clogs pores.

   Step 6:
   Consider going to a day spa for a bacial. Similar to a facial, it involves having your skin exfoliated and plucked free of pimples.

   Step 7:
   If your bacne is severe or resistant to treatment, see a dermatologist. They might recommend beginning an oral antibiotic, which can be very effective in banishing bacne—and, yes, even the dreaded butne.
