Unknown bumps: While this could be acne, more information is needed about the distribution of these bumps, whether they hurt or itch, and what he has been using to try to clear these bumps. Bumps can be formed by other issues in the skin besides acne. Folliculitis, or infection of the hair follicles, can cause bumps, while fungal and viral infections can also cause red bumps.
