neck pimples - #17734

Parthiv

I am dealing with this really annoying issue with neck pimples lately. Like, I’ve never really had bad skin, just the occasional zit here and there, but my neck has been breaking out like crazy! I mean, is that normal? I've tried to keep it clean, washing it and all, but it feels like no matter what I do, these neck pimples just keep coming back. My friends say it's probably from sweating, since I've been hitting the gym a lot more, and I do feel pretty sweaty around my neck after workouts. But, like, I don’t think it’s only that is it? I read somewhere that neck pimples might be related to hormones or even diet, and I honestly don't know what to think. It’s embarrassing too, especially when I wear certain tops that show off my neck. I tried using some spot treatments, but they just seem to irritate the skin more. Anyone else dealt with neck pimples like this? What gave you relief? Or should I go see a doc? I'm worried it might get worse and I kinda want to nip it in the bud before it becomes a bigger deal! Thanks for any help you guys can give!
