Suggest Treatment For Reddish Bumps On Face Along With Acne Spots

Posted on Wed, 25 Mar 2015

Question: I am 20 years old and had had only typical facial acne out breaks, nothing lasting or consistent. About a month and a half ago I began to notice little red bumps in areas not usual places for acne for me. I have very good skin care habits and use very little make up. My face and even a bit on my neck is covered with red spots , a few are classic pimples but my entire face has spots! They don't physically hurt me but emotionally , don't feel like my self? What can I do about this or who should I see?
