Back Acne-How To Beat It

Back acne, often referred to as "bacne" is often one of the most difficult areas to treat. While back acne often goes unseen, it's pain does not go unnoticed. Bacne sufferers receive a painful reminder of their condition every time they lie down or press their back upon a chair. It goes without saying, but this area of the body is difficult to wash and even more difficult to apply topical medications.

Various measures can be taken to prevent back acne, and as the old adage goes, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Backs are prone to acne for a variety of reasons such as:

Hormonal change
Medications
Genetics
Perspiration trapped within synthetic clothing
Increased exposure to pollutants
Prolonged emotional distress
Friction caused by wearing tight non-breathable garments
Exposure to grease in a work environment

Things you can do to alleviate your back acne

Wear loose breathable fabrics such as cotton.
If you are using a medicated body wash, consider dispensing it in bath water to ensure it makes contact with the entire surface of your back.
Avoid actions which will irritate the skin such as picking and scratching at the affected area.
Add a 50/50 water vinegar rinse to your wash cycle. This will help remove perspiration and soap residue that begins to build up on the fibers of your clothing.
Avoid clothing or backpacks which create friction between material and your skin.
Avoid prolonged sun exposure
If you enjoy a summertime swim, avoid the amount of time spent in the pool. Chlorine can dry your skin quickly, and excess dead skin cells lead to clogged pores
Eat a diet rich in antioxidants to combat the environmental hazards your skin encounters daily.
Drink plenty of water.

Taking steps to diminish the severity of back acne makes the treatment of acne easier. If your back acne condition does not abate after making lifestyle changes, you may consider using an over the counter acne treatment system. For some, acne is a benign condition that will come to pass. For others, the affects of acne are painful, long lasting, and may result in lifelong scarring. In any case, do not ignore it. If your attempts at acne treatment are largely unsuccessful contact your physician.
