How do you manage spots and constant skin irritation in the bottom area? I am 46 years old and have had this issue in varying degrees of severity since the age of 13.

Dear Nurialapuria
Thank you for your question.
If you are getting breakouts on your bottom I would recommend you review the products you are currently using and consider using skin products with 'actives'.
Conditioning your hair and letting it drip on your back/bottom area can clog skin pores leading to breakouts. Using rich moisturisers can also cause similar problems.
Consider using a salicylic acid based cleansers can help reduce build up of dead skin cells and blocked pores which can also lead to breakouts.
Best wishes
Dr Zainab
