I don't have acne at all on my face. :]
The only place where it's at is..
Right under my neck, near the top of my stomach.
ON my stomach/abdominal area. It's really embarassing and disgusting for other people to see. But I like swimming shirtless, lately I've only been swimming with those swimshirt things on and I don't really like it.

I'll admit in the past I've popped some and realized the damage of scarring I've caused to myself..

I still have some appearing, what do I do to get rid of them?
It's just so embarrasing, AND ALSO, I've got a little more appearing on the back of my arm/shoulders/back.. :/
Help?

I used to have an acute case of acne when I was younger for many years; it covered

my face, back, chest and posterior. I eventually healed myself without the use of

drugs. I cured myself through DIET.

-This is what you should avoid/elminate:

fried foods
White bread/flour
starch combinations during the same meal (e.g. potatoes and pasta)
soda/carbonated drinks
sugar/corn syrup
meat/dairy
soft foods (processed foods)
hydrogenated oils (in processed foods)


-you should increase your intake of:

fruits/vegetables, preferably organic (you should have a salad a day, at the least)
8 glasses of water a day
whole foods
black and/or brown bread (whole grains)
nuts


-you should have a balance, of 80% alkaline forming foods, to 20% acid forming

foods. (mostly fruits and vegetables)

-----

Basically, your eliminations are poor/sluggish; thats is why some people can get

away with eating badly, but you may not. The reason changing your diet to the foods

below will help is because your eating foods that are much easier to digest and

elminate than those above.

I would check out Edgar Cayce; without his advice I would probably still suffer

today.

He also said you can help yourself through osteopathic adjustments to your spine,

he said this can create imbalances in your nervous system (if it isn't in proper

adjustment) which will affect everything else. I haven't done this yet, as it is

expensive; but I assume when I do, I will be able to better digest the

aforementioned foods. Through DIET ALONE I have been cured for a number of years.

Don't believe the people who say it doesn't effect it, I swear to god this will

help. It helped me. =) good luck!

Are you entirely sure this is acne? Usually, if people get acne, they will get it on their backs, their upper chest, and maybe the neck. There could be some other reasons you are getting bumps all over yourself.

I'd go check out the problem with a dermatologist. Also, you should do some research on shower gels that are good in fighting acne (or, as they call it, "bacne" when it appears elsewhere).

You might ask for acne medication (that you take by mouth), but that is a little dangerous.
