Everyone at some point in their lives have encountered acne. While facial acne is usually the most common, there are other areas of your body which can be proned to acne as well. Other anatomic areas like your back can suffer acne too. As you can't see your back, you might not be aware but there might be acne present. Your back pores can potentially be clogged due to extra sebum on the surface of your skin. As a result, the cells become dead and can't escape the skin. Along with the sebum, they attract bacteria and this aids in the formation of acne. While a back acne body remedy treatment is the same as a facial acne, the back is more complicated since it's larger and is not within reach easily. To get rid of back acne and cure it, it definitely takes much more time as well. Here are 11 tips to prevent and cure back acne.

(1) Always find a way to wash your back well during your shower to unclog blocked pores, dead skin and to remove any impurities. You might have recourse to a back scrubber or simply a towel whereby you place it behind your back and with your hands pushing backwards, you slide the towel softly on your back horizontally.

Engage in physical activities like jogging, brisk walking, cycling and swimming for instance. Static exercises can help too.
