Been lifting hard for about 4 years. In May I started taking a creatine and about the 1st of June I broke out really bad on my arms. I immediately stopped taking the creatine.

It is mid july now and although it has gone down it is still very noticeable. Hate not being able to wear sleevless shirts because it's embarrassing. Never had a zit on my arm for my whole life . .don't know why now.


Anyone have any ideas or things I could try to make it go away? THanks.

Maybe a heat rash. It happens to me when it gets hot. I get it on my back and I cant even put a shirt on sometimes cause it bothers me so much. Doctor told me it could be from me being
allergic to my own sweat. Try a cortisone cream after getting out of the shower that might help. It helps me.

Indians,

I had a bad breakout on my back about a month ago, and talked to my buddy who is a doctor. He recommended Benzoyl peroxide 10% (Oxy 10). I think it cost me $5 or so. It is basically the maximum strength acne medicine that you can buy over the counter. I got a cream of it, and within 2 days the breakout was gone.

Obviously I am not sure if it is the same thing that you have, but it worked like a charm for me.

Thanks Furmanski. I got a different body wash with salilyic(spelling) acid in it. Some improvement in the last 2 days. We'll see, definitely very frustrating.
