How to remove big pimples on the back and what are ways to prevent it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If large then: it is likely cystic acne and should be treated by a dermatologist to avoid complications such as infection and worsening scarring, Prevention is not possible but minimizing the impact with monitoring by a dermatologist will give the best results
