Zits on back and chest?

Issue
Okay this is gross but I've started getting a few ingrown hairs on my chest and sorta shoulder area on my back. The problem is they sorta swell up and fill with some sort of gross stuff much like zits. In turn, even when I don't touch them, many are leaving scars and marks. What can/should i do, both to get rid of or reduce the hairs/zits and diminish the appearance of the scars?

Best Tip

This sounds weird, but I have sworn by NEOSPORIN ANTIBIOTIC/PAIN RELIEVING CREAM (NOT OINTMENT, CREAM ONLY) since I was 15 years old. dab it on zits, ingrowns, etc (use sparingly if you have oily skin or large pores) Also using an astringent like Biore Astringent (it's green and has menthol in it) is good for getting rid of zits as well. Good luck!

ProActiv works on face, back, chest.....maybe that'll work?
See a dermatologist before you get too scarred up (if that is what your main worry is). They'll be able to help you better than this msg board.
Ewww..... Go to a doctor, my cousin had that and he went to the doctor.
Make sure you change out of sweaty clothes as soon as possible. Wash regularly & leave them alone. Its the picking that causes scarring.
they are clodded pours
see doctor for antibiotics
