How To Get Rid Of Raised Red Bumps Around Temples Area?
I have been experiencing raised red bumps around my temples. They start off small and get bigger daily until they are dime sized or more, not necessarily round. They last for a few weeks then disappear slowly. They do not itch, and don t show anywhere else on my body. This has been happening periodically for over two years now. I thought I was allergic to my motorcycle helmet, but that s not it. Any ideas?
