Question 1

how to remove pimples on your body?

Accepted Answer

Pimple Info: Pimples occur when glands in our skin get blocked and what they secrete collects and causes pressure. The immediate response is inflammation (red, hot, tender swelling). This is the body increasing the blood flow to the injury to bring healing factors to the area and also the veins expand to carry bad stuff away. Gentle cleansing and avoid picking/squeezing lets nature take its course.

Question 2

small pimples on back side of body?

Accepted Answer

Folliculitis: What you are describing sounds a lot like folliculitis (hair follicle infection - mild).  Often, the best approach is to use an acne-type body wash with benzoyl peroxide (bpo).  Bpo is over-the-counter and well tolerated.   Use it in the shower daily and try to leave it on for a couple minutes.  If this doesn't help after a week, then see your doctor for help and guidance.

Question 8

what to do about my pimple problems on body and face?

Serious Rx: Topical benzoyl peroxide plus some systemic medication, perhaps an antibiotic like tetracycline, is going to be required if you've got it on your trunk. If it's severe, consider isotretinoin; if you're female, you have hormonal options. Ignore everything you read about the "causes" and "natural treatments" for acne. If you're an adult woman and this is new, talk with your gynecologist.

Question 9

what cause pimple filled with water all over the body?

Accepted Answer

Possibilities...: Before the days of the chicken pox vaccine, most people caught chicken pox, which shows up as little water-filled blisters all over the body. The blisters break easily when rubbed or sractched. Chicken pox still happens, but is less common now. A doctor can look to see what the rash is, because other skin disorders can also cause similar little "water-filled pimples".
