I got acne. most of it is on my upper legs tho. weird or not?

It's mostly on my butt and on the part of my legs covered by my boxers. None anywhere near my nuts.

Never done anything remotely sexual I swear.

Does this just mean I need to wash better?

    I doubt if that's acne given where it is. If I were you I'd have it checked out by a doctor.

    If you're not washing and drying yourself properly that won't help, but it could be an allergy or heat rash if you sweat a lot in those areas.

    It could be a reaction to the laundry products you use. I had that happen to me. It's not acne in that case, although it resembles it.

  • Do you shave? Or wear tight pants often? Do you only wear loose boxers? Are you thicker and your legs rub together when you walk? Could be broken or ingrown hairs from any of these.

      Don't shave, but I tried it once.
      Pants might be a bit tight...
      Yeah, I'm a bit overweight...

      Yeah now I think it's ingrown hairs.

      • Could definitely be that! You could try tweezing, they also have plenty of ingrown hair creams. Incredibly common and often look like pimples. Also would suggest baby powder, ingrown hairs are caused usually by sweat and friction, powder eliminates both. The whole situation is a bit of a kick in the balls, but that's life ya know?
