Bacne, or back acne, can be incredibly frustrating to deal with. It's one thing to have a pimple on your face in front of your friends it's another thing entirely to have it on your back and know that everyone else is looking at it too.
Bacne is caused by a blockage in the pores of the skin on your back. This blockage prevents oxygen from getting through and kills off the good bacteria that keeps acne bacteria under control. As more bacteria build up, the inflammation gets worse and worse.
Luckily there are plenty of ways to get rid of bacne without having to resort to expensive treatments or invasive procedures. Here are some simple things you can try:
1) Exfoliate regularly this will help clear away dead skin cells that are clogging up your pores and causing inflammation; 2) Use an antibacterial soap or body wash; 3) Try a benzoyl peroxide cream or lotion; 4) Try rubbing apple cider vinegar on your skin after showering (leave it on for 15 minutes before rinsing).
