To consult a gp first for back acne or straight to a dermatologist?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Thoughts: First look at your shampoo & make sure it is free of any parabens as stabilizers which many will react to with this problem. If you use a paraben free shampoo, start with your GP who can either help fix the issue or refer you to someone who can.
