    In summers specially I tend to get tiny pimples on my shoulder and back a few (5-6) have little puss in them also and they hurt when pressed or even touched. In such days I notie that garment other than cotton irritates them so does deo sprays..

    What do you guys have to say about it? Is this acne? or some reaction to heat?

    It happens to me also especially in the summer time and i have the same feeling about my t-shirts. I think that is just an reaction because usually i don't have pimples on my skin

    I suffer similar symptoms but yet havent figured out the precautionary measures to be taken. Heat and sweat really irritates my skin.

    Yes this one usually trigger in summer due to heat and sweat... Just keep a close check on the garments you wear. Probably get a tube of benzoyl preoxide and use it frequently.

    My acne always breaks out when I'm exposing to the sun so i think that is just a typical reaction. I have this reaction in the beginning because after, the sun burns and dryes the pimples.
    I think that the sweat or heat makes the skin to break out more because of the pores that can not breath and we all know that sweat is not an hygienic thing.

    I think that is just an reaction of your body to the sun and heat,but it could turn into acne if you'r not careful.

    Here is a tip:
    Use products or lotions with high SPF (15).

    or at least 15. If you have sensible skin (and I am happy to say I don't) better look for something like SPF 30.

    Getting pimples on the summer time its because of the hit and exposure to the sun. A lot of people think sun gets rid off pimples, but it's wrong. They get dry because of the sun burn, but the heat makes skin more oily and pores get clogged and more pimples appear. Make sure you use a sunscreen with high SPF ( at least 30), and don't worry about not getting tanned. You will...believe me. It's better less tanned and clear skin. Use Neutrogena Clear Wash For Acne instead of regular shower gel. Great stuff!
    If you use Benzoyl Peroxide make sure you wear only white shirts and white towels...beaches. But don't combine two or more products for acne treatment. Not good!
