Painful Back Acne

Hi all,

 

I recently started getting back acne for whatever reason. It started before football started and has continued up to now. It is deep big painful red lumps usually one or two at a time and they last for a few days and then go away leaving hyperpigmentation which is really annoying. My back is not oily (I know this because I have felt my back and it is as dry as any other part of my body) my chest has absolutely no acne as well.

 

My brother does not have this (he is 2 years older) I am wondering if maybe it is something he went through as well and the marks faded.

 

Please help. Thanks.

cetaphil centle cleansing bar soap is working really well for me. its even helping my face. i always thought cetaphil was crappy judging by its ingredients but this bar soap has almost got rid of it for the first time in 15 years.

Okay thanks. When football stops will the acne hopefully stop too? I believe the reason it started before football was because I wore a swim shirt with a life jacket which would run on the skin.

 

Thanks
