Body acne ?Help please

I suffers from body-acne  since 4 year.Those acne appears on the back, shoulders, face, and chest
I had blood test few days ago.Everything was normal (Haemogobin,Neutrophils,Lymphocytes.Monocytes,Total Leucocyte count and Basophill) but eosinophils vaule was  litlle higher 9% than normal vaule(1-6 % normal).I search on web  and found it may cause allergic effects.
If this increment in Eosinophils value is responsible for Body acne
Is this due to the oily food i eat ? Help me to know how i can get rid of those body-acne .

Hi,
How are you? Body acne is generally caused by clogged pores that attract dirt and and eventually suffocate the skin. Sweat, oil and dirt collect in the pores and promote the growth of bacteria beneath the skin. Although this process is similar to facial acne, bacteria and friction from clothing normally cause body acne. Wearing, lighter, more breathable clothing and  washing all affected areas with a waterless cleanser on a daily basis help. If it persists, prescription medication may be indicated. Take care and best regards.
