    well.. I suffer from tiny pimples on my back when it gets too hot... I usually apply some topical lotion after bath and it gets better.

    I dont go for medicated creams.. Instead I focus on wearing cottons and using a talc that is not heavily scented but mild..

    I read some where here on the forum that application of benzoyl preoxide helps a lot in back acne as well as in any other type.

    Fast G are you sure that the irritation on your back is acne?
    It could be just a typical reaction to sweat.

    For back acne use shower gel that contains salicilic acid, or products for sensitive skin.

    I heard Dove for sensitive skin is great to prevent back acne. I never tried it, so I can't tell you how it works, but it's worth try it.

    I also had a problem with back acne, but because of my allergy to benzoyl peroxide I couldn't use anything. I found the cleanser from bff acne treatment to be good cause it's very mild. Also the treatment cream is pretty effective.
