You are suffering from what we call tropical acne. In this condition pimples erupt on the back and shoulder area followed by pigmentation after healing. The treatment is not very complicated. This can be treated with tablet cream and soap. maintenance treatment may be required to cover for occurrence. Please don't use oil on your head. Please contact me using online consultation for proper examination and detailed prescription
