While acne on the face is covered by every women’s magazine, if the same problem troubles you on areas placed a little lower, you won’t find advice in glossy magazines. This problem is compounded by the fact that the skin in these places is almost constantly covered and cannot breathe, which only worsens healing. Still, with a bit of effort it is possible to reverse this unpleasant condition.
Start with breathable underwear and gentle washing
If you have discovered inflamed bumps on your buttocks that heal poorly, the first step should be to eliminate all synthetic materials from your underwear and other clothing that touches the affected skin. Cotton and other breathable natural materials are ideal. Also skip fabric softener and choose a non‑aggressive detergent with a gentle formula. You can iron your pants, skirts and underwear to be sure that any bacteria have been killed and will not irritate you.
Acne can be caused by many factors: heat rash in summer, hormonal changes, clogged hair follicles, etc. Bacterial growth can also often cause infection and skin inflammation. It is advisable to try to get rid of acne in time to prevent its development. We’ll show you what you need to do to prevent further acne from appearing:
- Don’t forget to shower regularly after training, exercising, running or during hot summer weather.
- If you sweat during the day, use at least a damp cloth. It’s practical and you can use it even when you’re not at home.
- Use a benzoyl peroxide exfoliator.
- Use a skin cleanser containing salicylic acid.
- Use regular exfoliation and a body cream.
- Maintain a healthy diet and drinking regimen.
Acne can appear at any time — find the cause
The skin on the buttocks requires the same care as other parts of our body. Acne can appear at any time, on anyone, regardless of gender or age, so there is nothing to be ashamed of; the important thing is not to let the problem grow and to follow hygienic measures to prevent inflammation and unsightly breakouts.
