Avatar f tn She is in and out of the house alot durning the day, so it is impossible to keep sunscreen on her all the time. She has had a white patch on her forehead for several years, but I have noticed that she has about 5 spots on her this year. She doesn't get sunburnt. What can I do? Is it form the sun? Should I try to put sunscreen on her more often even though she is not getting burnt? Do I need to take her to our family doctor about these spots?
556637 tn?1249785348 Everything I have tried causes my face to have a burning sensation. It feels exactly as if someone rubbed hot peppers on my face!!! I also get a ton of TINY bumps all over my skin. I'd say each bump is smaller than a typical 'goosebump." Do you have any idea what may be causing this? Do you have any suggestions of what to look for in a sunscreen? I have tried everything from Clinique City Block to baby sunscreen.
1415174 tn?1453243103 I first got an allergy to using a sunscreen. My forehead and cheeks broke out in a face rash that had small red non itcy bumps. That went away but then I have some larger itchy bumps that won't go away. I don't think they are an infection it is related to the allergy. I am only washing my face with Cetaphil and then adding 10% glycerin for some hydration to these spots. Glycerin is a natural substance found in the body and I don't think that is causing a problem.
Avatar f tn In less than two days after this hike, I developed itchy skin and then a rash on my chest area, one of the places where I had applied the sunscreen. The only place I get this is usually in exposed areas that are not covered by clothing, typically my face and now my chest. Over night the rash turned into very tiny acne like bumps, and within hours those bumps developed even smaller heads on them. When I itch them the head pops, never bleeds and it seeps and crusts over and starts to heal.
Avatar f tn I have purchased a water filter and the acne had gone away dramatically, but now i have severe blemishes on my face. At first i was using a product called Ambi and Crusaders soap and face cream that are skin bleaching creams. They both work well, but they lighten up my entire face rather than just evening my skin tone so now my face is visibly lighter than the rest of my body. I am looking into purchasing a product called Mederma and i wanted to see what you think about this product.
Avatar f tn I have red bumps on my feet and some on my legs and knees after being in the sun. Is this a sun allergy? It only happens when I am out in the sun. They burn and are itchy. Will a certain sunblock help prevent this? Or what can I do?
Avatar f tn During the recent heat wave in Toronto (20 celsius - about 70 farenheit is balmy for Toronto this time of year) I tried a new sunscreen on the market - Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Face Sunscreen SPF 60 with Helioplex. It was excellent. Thy - I hope you are feeling better soon - that sun is certainly dangerous!
Avatar n tn For years I've had small bumps on my arms and back. The bumps are like little pimples and are rough and dry. My face has general redness over the nose and cheeks (I look like I have constant sunburn). A friend thinks I may have rosacea. The symptoms I experience have not bothered me. There's no pain, itchiness, etc. But I'm wondering if there's need to worry?

Avatar m tn Beforr that I took took thyroxin for 12 years. Dark patches started appearing on my face from last 7 years. now i have dark patches on my forehead cheeks nose and between my eyebrows. I migrated to canada six years ago before that i lived in india and had to stay in sun for one or two hours a day sometimes for lesser time.I did not use sunscreen .
Avatar f tn So I have been in Mexico for the passed 5 days and I got really sunburnt on my face. After that I have been applying loads of sunscreen on my face. Last night I noticed a few pimples on my forehead and didn't think anything of them. Today however it looks like a bunch of pimples have joined to create a mass on my forehead that has a depth of a few mm. What could this be? If needed I have pictures I could show!
Avatar f tn I recently have been going to waterparks and whatnot, thus not covering my arms but using sunscreen. For many years I have always kept my arms covered in some manner. Today I have discovered small raised bumps or "goosebumps". Centralized in a tiny area of my forearm, the bumps are clear fluid filled and rough. Could it be from sun exposure or something more serious?
Avatar n tn I noticed a scab on my daughter's face 3 days ago just above and toward the nose from her left eyebrow. She had been covering it with her bangs. I asked her if she had picked at a pimple and she said "I don't know." I told her to keep her hair off of it because the oil in her hair would make it worse. I put some acne gel on it and forgot about it. Yesterday she started complaining about the corner of her right eye hurting.
Avatar f tn Also always use sunscreen/sunblock as dark areas on exposure to sunlight turn darker still. For some patients with severe hyperpigmentation,surgical and cosmetic intervention may help. Wearing sunscreen and avoiding the use of abrasive cleansers and cosmetics for the face may help. Get enough sleep and eat a balanced diet everyday. It would be advisable to consult a skin specialist for your symptoms and a proper clinical examination.
Avatar f tn If the sunscreen gets in your eyes it will mess the contact lenses so try not to put sunscreen on your forehead so when you sweat don't get in you eyes , it will get it dirty and you won't be able to see good and is going to hurt your eyes
Avatar n tn my skin is pale and it has never tanned but over the past few year i have been getting a rash on my neck that moves onto my face is i am exposed to sun for long periods. it starts off as a heat rash but then forms little white heads and resembles acne. it only seems to be on my neck and behind the ears. i have been put on antibiotics everytime when occurs and they do eventually help it but i am looking for a solution to prevent it occurring as i am going to be travelling to Australia soon.
3202871 tn?1352129777 I've had lots of red bumps but mostly on my arms, chest and back. I've had a few on my face but not many. My lips and get chapped so I use lotion and burts bees for my lips. Helps a lot. Make sure you're drinking sufficient water as we tend to get dehydrated. I also have ointment for my bumps which I should use more often. I am almost done so waiting for these annoying bumps that itch to go away!
Avatar f tn I have a scar about 1 cm long on my face have had it for 2 months now. What can I do to minimize it as I am very self conscious about it.
Avatar n tn I had great skin growing up, but recently my skin has been way more difficult to handle. I am a 25 year old female, and about 5 week ago I started getting hard, unpopable bumps on my cheeks and one on my forehead. They were painful and big, and I am still dealing with the scars. They flattened out and are still red, but I thought my skin was getting better and healing. Like I said, I don't get very much acne, so this is new to me.
Avatar f tn Also, I never use sunscreen, but my makeup includes sunscreen and my face never got a rash. This rash has not spread at all, but just this year during SUMMER, a scaly dry spot formed on my chest and neck, well I can't see the scaly dry spot but I can feel it, it feels dry and scaly. As of the horrible rash on my inner arm, it looks horrible, it is red and it is very itchy. I am extrememly worried and I don't have any time to see a doctor.
Avatar n tn Every summer after I get a slight tan I get these white little bumps lighter than my current skin color as well as a little rough. It doesn't itch at all. Not sure what I should use or if it is a fungus from the sun, I use sunscreen and can't seem to figure it out. Usually it is just around my stomach and mid back. Any thoughts?
Avatar f tn When this flares up it sometimes gets on the sides of his mouth also. The rash is red, no bumps or lesions. I am concerned that this will scar, it hasn't completely gone away for a few months. Any ideas?
