A member asked:

Can you please describe great products for back acne?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Ed Friedlander answered

Systemic Rx: Forget home remedies and over-the-counter products except as adjuncts. Usually acne on the trunk requires a systemic antibiotic or stronger. Get with your physician.
