Hi,

The most common places where you will get acne is the face back and chest. Please see my answer to your other post for further advice on this.

Yes you can get acne anywhere on your body. Some places include the back and chest.

It is very common for people including adults to get acne on the chest, back arms and neck. I suggest rinsing with cool water, using a body scrub, and wearing loose clothes in summer time especially at night. Also try not to touch it a lot, it spreads the bacteria and also mushes more oil into the pores.

There is also an allergic reaction in which acne like hives can be present, it may need treated with topical prescriptions.
