Exercise should only be avoided if you breakout from sweating. If you do exercise you should always do proper skin care afterwards to prevent breakouts and rashes.

You can exercise with dermatillomania. Any open lesions or sores should be kept clean and dry and exercise should be avoided if it causes pain or irritation to any currently open lesions or sores.

I do advise to exercise, any kind of activity as long as it doesn’t make you uncomfortable
