Rash On Face, Red Bumps, Using Noxzema Face Wash And Exfoliant. What Is The Problem?
im using back an old face wash called Noxzema and I always used it , the problem is that since I m using it I m developping a bad rash in my face with some red bumps .. but Im not sure that the cleanser is the problem because it never did that before , and I m also using some kind of an exfoliant for my face , not to mention that I have sensitive skin . So what do you think is the problem right here ?

Hi i think exfoliant on ur face is causing red bumps all over the face.it is called irritant contact dermatitis.whatever the reason can be use a antihistamine at night.antibiotic twice daily and prednisolone 10 mg thrice daily tapered to 10 mg daily and application of calamine lotion over the bumps can cure it
