What Causes Painful Lumps On The Face?

My 7 year old daughter had a 4 bumps on her left side of face on Thursday. Friday there were a few more bumps and now it has turned to a red, pimply rash up her left side of cheek, a few behind her ear and a few by her left eye. She says its not itchy but hurts when I put the hydrocotizone on it.

Pediatrician 's  Response
HI,
Welcome to HCM forum,
It is hard to comment on the lesion without seeing. If not itchy, its unlike to be allergic but its better you consult a pediatrician or a dermatologist and advisable not to apply any hydrocort cream, as it may modify the lesion and might not be able to come to a diagnosis as to what it might be.
Happy to help.
