Management of acne
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to ask a doctor service
I have gone through your query.
I would recommend you to to use triclosan based soap ( acneguard soap) on the back during bath, take capsule doxycycline 100 mg once daily at bedtime and apply benzoyl peroxide 10 percent cream only on the pimples at bedtime for 6 weeks.
These are prescription drugs and should be taken under the supervision of the doctor.
Avoid dairy products, sugars, cleansing of the back, wear cotton clothes, stay in cool airy environment.
