Can I Get Red Bumps From Wearing A Helmet?

I have some small red bumps they don t break the skin like a pimple would, on the mid point of my forehead below the hairline that has been here a while, 2 yrs sometimes more obvious then others. Do you know what it is and can it be caused from my hockey helmut?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello dear welcome to HealthcareMagic
Regarding your experience with a pimple like bump on your forehead followed by wearing a helmet I am suggesting that you have developed a folliculitis due to bacteria infection

In view of this please do a blood culture and see a dermatologist specialist for expert clinical evaluation as well as adequate drug prescription

I hope this helps Regards
