Hey /fit/,

Ever since I started working out I have been getting red spots (like miniature pimples but too small to have the "head") over my shoulder and my top back area (none on chest).

I shower after every workout and I shower every day, my hygiene is very good.
I'm not ingesting increased amounts of dairy products in fact I drink very little milk in general, I eat about 2-4 eggs a day depending on whether I am working out or not.

How do you deal with this?

I'm currently at work so I really cant take a photo but it looks pretty much like this

Its shoulder acne. Blood flow to the muscle increases heat to the area, which stimulates sweat glands. Your shirt is tightish against your upper back and shoulders, which doesnt let your skin breathe, so the sweat clogs up your pores rather than evaporating off, causing spots.

Extremely common, dont worry about it. Shower twice a day (including straight after the gym) if it bothers you that much

He should cut it out, it's actually terrible for you

Take Vit A 500% daily value
Take Vit E 500% daily value
Shower everyday, hot in the beggining, taper off to cold.

Mk677 also helps.

Would looser shirts/sleeveless shirts when working out help?

Get some Calvin Klein wife beaters, then compare the redness to what it was back then, thank me later.
