Here are some REALLY good, and very inexpensive ways to treat most acne at home. Try each method (unless you’re allergic to the ingredients) until you find one that works best for you. Good luck =) BTW, I know some of these may sound bizarre but try them…what have you got to lose other than the acne!!
1. Put toothpaste on your acne before going to bed. (Make sure it is paste not gel). It should reduce the swelling of acne noticeably.
2. Dab egg whites on your acne and leave on for 20 minutes or overnight. It’s supposed to pull the infection out of the blemish.
3. Wash acne infected areas twice a day with warm salt water. This reduces oils in the skin and helps to dry the acne up without further agitation.
4. Use ice on acne before going to bed. This works best on pimples that have not yet formed a head. It reduces swelling and helps to prevent scarring.
5. Wash and dab acne with cotton balls that have been soaked in vinegar. Let dry; do not wash off immediately.
6. Place strawberries leaves over your acne and the alkalinity will help to reduce the swelling.
7. Try taking salmon oil supplements (found in health food stores and vitamin shops).
*Always drink plenty of water, eat healthy foods and get exercise.

If you work out, shower afterward, when you sweat and it dries it gets in your clothes and the bacteria causes the pimples.
Try Neutrogena Body Clear Body Wash for a week or two and make sure you wash your back thoroughly.
Also Clinique makes an anti-bacterial acne spray for the body.
I know the feeling...good luck!

hi,
I feel its coz of dandruff flakes falling on ur skin mixing with the body oils and dirt. So take bath frequently but most importantly take care of the dandruff if u have it. Many times if u keep ur fingers in ur head they act as carriers of the dandruff flakes.( if u have dandruff). U can use lemon to take care of the dandruff( natural way) or u can use a good shampoo.
There are many topical ointments for pimples which work good.
Take care
