Avoid high protein diet. But you will require treatment for complete clearance of the truncal acne.
Plus steroids in long term duration / high dose results in truncal acne.
Y were u receiving steroids ??
If taken for longer duration they need to be appropriately tapered as sudden stopping can cause other side effects.
Kindly consult online with photos.
