Acne on the back: an unpleasant, but fixable attack

Acne, wherever they appear, is an unpleasant phenomenon. Face, neck, chest, back – no matter where the acne is located, you want to get rid of them immediately, because the psychological discomfort they cause is huge. Yes, unlike face acne on the back is easy to hide under clothing. But can this serve as a reason not to worry anymore about the existing problem? Of course not! Sooner or later, a situation will arise when a person will feel very embarrassed, hesitating to undress or put on light clothing.  

So with acne on the back you need to fight as aggressively as with similar defects on the face. Moreover, in order for this struggle to lead to positive results, initially it is necessary to determine the reason because of which unfortunate acne still appears.

External reasons

1. Dirt. The most common, but nonetheless common cause of acne scattering in the back is non-compliance with hygiene rules. Water procedures are rarely performed – wait for unpleasant rashes on the skin. This is a well-known fact. Eliminate it more than easy. It is enough just to devote more time to personal hygiene, to bathe twice a day, and the problem will be solved by itself. Moreover, it is advisable to pay special attention to the problem area – wash your back thoroughly, and after the bath, treat the skin with tincture of calendula, drying the epithelium with a solution of potassium permanganate or salicylic alcohol.

2. Cosmetics. Acne appears on the back due to an allergic reaction of the body to the cosmetics and / or skin care products used. This may be due to the poor quality of the product, or it may be too addicted to “beauty,” but if you want to get rid of skin problems, try to give up cosmetics for a while and watch how the body reacts to it. If acne becomes less – then the cause is detected correctly and excluded.  

3. Clothing. Unfortunately, modern clothes made of synthetic fabrics with artificial dyes, clothes of very “tight” styles, also often become the cause of pimples in the back. Ideally, you need to reconsider your views on fashion and give preference to clothes sewn from natural materials that allow the skin to breathe. If this rule is met, then acne will disappear soon.

4. Improper nutrition. Addiction to fast foods, fatty, spicy and salty foods, sweets and pastries is a common cause of acne on the body. As a result of the use of such products, the body is slagged, the sebaceous glands are disturbed, a lot of toxins are released through the sweat glands on the skin. The result is permanent multiple acne on the back, face, and other parts of the body.

Therefore, to change the situation for the better, you need to abandon the “harmful” products and establish a full, well-balanced diet. By the way, bad habits also need to be abandoned, since alcohol, especially fashionable carbonated cocktails, and smoking interfere with the course of natural processes in the body, and therefore also become a likely cause of acne on the skin.

Internal reasons

Non-passing, large subcutaneous acne on the back is a cause for real health concern. It is these manifestations that are evidence of malfunctions in the work of internal systems and organs.  

These include dysbiosis, and hormonal disruptions, and gastrointestinal diseases, and diseases of the genitourinary system. In addition, internal somatic diseases, such as intercostal neuralgia, hidden pathologies of the spine, diseases of the endocrine system and much more, can cause acne on the back.

To find out such factors provoking the appearance of acne, one prevention is not enough. It is imperative to seek the help of a doctor, undergo a full examination and begin treatment of the identified disease. Only in this case can we hope for a favorable prognosis and guaranteed getting rid of acne on the body.
