Question 1

1 dime size, no head pimple/blister between scrotum and anus. 2 weeks. friction from tennis and sweat? std!?

Accepted Answer

Sebaceous cyst?: An STD is a very unlikely cause of this sort of problem. More likely an inflamed (infected?) sebaceous cyst or something similar. See a doctor if it doesn't clear up in another week or so. Or sooner if it continues to enlarge, becomes sore, and ASAP if fever or spreading redness. (Your concern about STD suggests you may be at risk, so get tested to be safe. But not the cause of this problem.)

Question 2

tiny dots on my forehead. no rash or redness just bumps. possible cause sweat pores clogged bcz i workout or subclinical acne? plz name a treatmnt tnx

Accepted Answer

Heat rash: This could be due sweating but in an adult one possibility is pityrisporum folliculitis.  Try a wash with sal acid if this does not help try otc lotrimen cream.

Question 3

reason for pimples on forehead?

Accepted Answer

Pimples on forehead: Forehead is a common area for acne breakouts. Also, if one uses an oily leave-in conditioner, the oils track down from the scalp and block up pores, which can lead to acne. Folliculitis, inflammation of hair follicles due to a yeast called pityrosporum is also a possibility. Please see your dermatologist for a more definitive diagnosis.

Question 4

7 year old has pimples on her forehead?

Accepted Answer

Less likely: Pimples occur during puberty. Some other rash may mimic pimples. Please has your doctor check it out.

Question 5

why there are so many pimples on my forehead?

Accepted Answer

Meds: Many patients do well with over the counter benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid preparations. Some patients require topical or oral antibiotics or retinoids as well. If the over the counter meds alone don't control your acne after a month of daily use, see a doctor for additional treatment options. It is important to be persistent, and some patients 'get worse before they get better'.

Question 6

how might i get quickly rid of forehead pimples?

Accepted Answer

Scientific Rx: If two weeks on over-the-counter benzoyl peroxide doesn't clear you, get with your physician. You may be a rx for a topical retinoic acid derivative, the oral contraceptive pill (if you're female), topical clindamycin, a systemic antibiotic such as tetracycline, or a dermatology referral for possible isotretinoin. All acne is manageable today; it's not a hygiene or lifestyle problem. We can help.

Question 7

breakout on forehead. not pimples. what could it be?

Accepted Answer

Many possibilities: Verruca plana, or flat warts would be one possibility.  I recommend being evaluated by a dermatologist to identify the exact cause.

Question 8

what to do if i have lots of pimples on my forehead. pls help!?

Accepted Answer

Scientific Rx: If topical benzoyl peroxide as tolerated has not cleared you in two weeks, get with your personal physician. Acne can't be cured but will eventually remit on its own. Until then, you must manage it as a chronic illness.

Question 9

my forehead is breaking out in pimples - what is the cause if it?

Accepted Answer

Unlikely pimples: These can be triggered by standard bacteria or fungus. You can make an effort to keep the area as clean as possible temporarily, but treatment would require the area be assessed and prescription medication given.

Question 10

i have pimples problem on my forehead can u please tell me the solution?

Accepted Answer

Benzoyl peroxide: Topical benzoyl peroxide, strength and frequency as tolerated, is your best friend. If it's just your forehead, this will probably clear you. If you're not good in a few weeks, get with your personal physician who can add something.
