Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for using HCM.

Can understand your concern, regarding your child

For a 11 year old child sudden onset of bubbles on the forehead can be due to heat or exposure to the sun or excessive sweating.

It can be due to local infection also or simple heat boils, due to the seasonal change.

Is it associated with itching, redness, fever,headache , irritability or any other symptoms?

Have you visited the dermatologist or undergone any blood tests after the occurence?

please let me know.

If not done, i would suggest you to meet the dermatologist.

Application of a steroid based antibiotic combination cream will help in reducing the boils.

Keep your child hydrated adequately,with potassium & sodium rich juices as well as application of sun protecting facial creams.

Any doubts, please feel free to ask,as you are always welcome.
Hoping for good health & recovery.

all the best

take care
