Question 1

my baby has a few groups of red pimple like bumps on face? what could it be?

Accepted Answer

Baby acne, contact: Without knowing more about the age of your baby and exactly how the rash looks,  is difficult to say for sure. If baby under 3 months old, is likely it is "baby acne", a normal newborn condition where the changes in hormone levels in the newborn cause the glands to secrete and cause pimples. If more a rough/red sensitive rash, could be soaps or irritants baby's cheeks are coming into contact with.

Question 2

pimple like bumps on face, skin rash white swollen tongue, fatigue, red and white blotches on palms night sweats. what could this be? please help!!!

Accepted Answer

Measles: is what this sort of sounds like, but no one could diagnose it without seeing you.  Obviously you are sick with something.  Please get an examination.  Good luck!

Question 3

Rosacea : Is likely. See your doctor for to get prescribed topical medications ANS to learn about triggers.

Question 4

red dry itch bumps on face witch get hard like a scab and peel also hurt a lot stopped shaving i use acne cream ext. still no help what could this be?

Accepted Answer

Facial rash: This could be folliculitis which is infected hair follicles. It could be cystic acne, pimples under the skin. Either of these would best be treated with prescriptions medicines. Try to get checked by a doctor to get the right diagnosis and treatment. Early treatment can help prevent scarring later on.

Question 5

pimple like bumps on face that won't go away are they related to allergies?

Accepted Answer

See a dermatologist: It is difficult to make a proper diagnosis since I am not there to see the condition. I recommend seeing a dermatologist so that they can make a proper diagnosis and give you something to get rid of the condition or relieve symptoms.

Question 6

not pimples but tiny bumps on face, what are these?

Accepted Answer

Many possibilities: There are many types and causes of skin rashes.   Several types of inflammatory conditions of the skin, allergic reactions, and sometimes bacterial, viral or fungal infections can cause rashes on the skin. Insect bites can also be the cause of a rash on the skin.  Have it evaluated by a professional and get the appropriate treatment.

Question 7

little skin colored bumps on face that turn into pimples?

Accepted Answer

Acne: This is probably just acne. See dermatologist for treatment.

Question 8

white bumps on face with soft fluid inside. are these whiteheads?

Accepted Answer

Probably : In all likelihood it probably is, particularly if there are no significant areas of redness or fever which if present would suggest you would be best served with a visit to your physician. Having said that in all likelihood this is a presentation of acne and would likely be well addressed with over-the-counter acne preparations containing benzoyl peroxide.

Question 9

ive go a raised red bump on my face.looks like a swollen pimple.redness has reduced but it has been almost 3 weeks.ive been applying hydro cortisone.on the same side i have a visible swollen gland below my jaw line.not feeling sick though.please help?

Accepted Answer

Exam needed: This may have been an inflamed/infected cyst or ingrown hair that has organized into a papule that no longer is inflamed. I recommend having a physician or dermatologist examine and advise you.

Question 10

my illness started with a bad headache and a sore throat. after two days of taking advil, my headache went away but my sore throat stayed and red, pimple-like bumps were forming all over my hands, feet, and face. is there a way to cure this?

Accepted Answer

Doctor can check: A sore throat can be evaluated by a primary care doctor  to see what the cause might be. Sometimes it is a strep throat bacterial infection (antibiotics would be needed to treat strep). Other possibilities include viral infections such as Hand-Foot-Mouth disease or Mononucleosis (mono), a tonsillar abcess, throat ulcers, etc...  The doctor has to look at the throat and rash to figure things out.
