Any ideas on how to help? He washes/baths every day and we use edpaderm but it doesnt seem to help. I've found the Nip&Fab teen range but it seems a bit harsh for his skin.

Try cutting out all SLS (sodium laureth/lauryl sulfate). It’s a common ingredient in shampoos and body washes (also shave creams/gels) and causes acne on many people with sensitive skin. Fortunately there are many shampoos with no SLS and bar soaps don’t have it.

Make sure he washes his back after washing his hair, DD had the same when conditioner wasn't being washed off her back. Could be a hormonal change
