A member asked:
Can you use facial acne cream on your back?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: However, acne that's troublesome on the back usually requires at least a topical antibiotic, and often a systemic antibiotic. A woman who can take and wants the oral contraceptive pill may be cleared by this, if you're a male, expect an antibiotic in your future. Good luck.
