Thread: chronic acne

  1. #1

    chronic acne

    So I have been eating well and sticking to my diet, but my acne still exists on my shoulders and upper back. I have been putting ointment on it for the last few weeks but it seems to only dry it out. Is there something else going on to why I still have acne in my mid-twenties? My face is clear and everything.

    here's what you do....

    get your woman to use one of those dilapatory gel things (you know, the kind that feels like there is sand in it?) and scrub the fuk outta yer back and shoulders once or twice a week, until it is bright red. part of the problem is you can't reach back there, skin doesn't shed like it should, closes up the pores, and you break out. And since she's already in the shower with you getting wet, then, well.... I'm sure I don't have to coach you what should come next?

    That's what a good woman is for. If you dont have that available scrub brush is only like $5 and you can do a decent job with a wash cloth as long as you use both hands, one over the shoulders and the other lower back pulling it back and forth. Its a good stretching exercise also. I think TR meant exfoliating body wash.

    As a little home remedy until you see a doc: put some dots of white toothpaste on your spots. This will help to cool it down. Make sure it is paste and not gel. And sleep with it on and then wash it off gently with warm water the next day.

    Hopefully you have someone who can help you get to your back....

    I hate to admit it but even I experienced it the last pct I went through. Never showed up till after the cycle. But it took forever to go away. It sucks as I never had it before.

    it is starting to go away, but I remember it being terrible when i was in pct awhile ago. So maybe pct is the culprit.

    Neutrogena soap combined with salycic acid oxy pads during the day helps mine

    also does having alot of estrogen in your system cause alot of acne? My body weight flucuates alot during the week, one day I will be 260, and maybe a couple days later I will be 270ish. I am going to take arimidex for that.
