How to prevent/get rid of body acne? especially on my back...It dissapears and comes back again...

i think diet is the most crucial.

I have this problem too . Quite alot too .

so wat kind of food do u suggest?

I have acne on my body, luckily not on my face. Less oily food? I exercise alot and my body gets dirty quite easily (for the sport i play)

hehe.. i not expert... but stay away from eating too much oily food.. spicy.. etc etc... have a detoxification plan every few months lo..

eat more fruits and vege

not what food to suggest, but what food to avoid. Common sense, no potato chip thingy and etc and etc and etc. Too much to list out. If you really care, go do research about it. Nothing we can do about here, but you got to do some work for yourself.

i have this problem too , i think theres a cream or what le , go consult a skin specialist.. it may be something else.

me also......on my back...yikesss.....
still i didnt know the cure~~


Chow.

as for me, I drink enough water and get enough sleep, as well as take something to balance out my hormones and now I dont really have acne. Drink at least 4 liters of water a day (you will need to go to the toilet often) and sleep at least 6-7 hours a day, or 8, depending on your needs.

why water helps: it helps flush out excess hormones that simulate the oil ducts, preventing acne of any kind.
why sleep: helps to prevent overstimulation of hormones in the body. Your body actually pumps andrenalin when you force yourself to stay awake.
why hormone balance: in both guys and girls, the body may sometimes have an excess of male/female hormones and this can cause pores to be clogged as too much oil is produced. Once this is sorted out, your skin stops becoming oily.

just my opinion/experience. And it worked for me, a former pizzaface. And also someone who has backene (acne on the back, damm painful when I sleep or lie down the bad memories)

If u sweat a lot during ur exercises, take off ur shirt or wear shirts that can let ur skin to "breathe". Ur achne problem will be lighthen.

Use Anti bacteria body shampoo. Find products tht contain T3 oil or bexolyc Perocide. But,make sure u are not sensitive to this ingredients!!

Only go for oral form of medicine if the above tht I mention didn't work. Medicine to control acne/ hormone is bad to our health, so it is the last option!

I used to have a lot. Front, back, during my workout when I took the protein powder. I found out later that although the powder was low on fat, it contains a high protein content. the protein content actually spikes the uric acid in the blood, causing too much toxic waste. After I stop taking it, the acne decreases a lot.

i don't know what kind of food you are taking now and you might want to do the detox program that are available anywhere. The easiest way is stop taking sugar, kicap, meat (anything with a face), oil, MSG, etc...only take fruits, vegetables, and complex carbs for a week. then you will see it really improves your skins complexion, health, etc...even your breath also smells good. (Warning, you will lose easily 2kg after the program) kikiki

i did that, but i still have some at the neck, i dont know why... Any idea? what detox you did?

pinjam thread ya...

i have this reddish spots which looks like arteries on my arm and thigh...do someone know what that is? it does not hurt me or do any harm...but what does it do?

picture? cant quite picture what you're describing.

I had that once before.... But it only lasted 30 minutes(15 minutes of constant scratching) It came almost suddenly, then it itched a while, then it left

will post a pic later...now gtg

Tumpang thread ya...
I started go gym workout 2 weeks already.
Everytime the next day after workout, whole body sure pain.
Is this normal? But after rest for 3-4 days, then ok already.
Then go gym again, pain again the next day.
I didn't go take those heavy stuff, just basic workout.
Just wanna know am I doing right.

not only is your post off topic, its been answered before. use the search function.

I use tea tree oil based body shampoo and use the scrub a lot

found that using your palm to clean your body is not really effective

does it work for you? i think my condition is improving after taking notice of what i swallow down my throat, gonna try those body scrubs.
