Hi I have a row of bumps on my face from my headline to my left eyebrow and they itch so bad, now they are turning red and I have one under my bottom eyelid where my cheeck bone is I don't know what they are, I thought they were mosquito bites at first cause they kept itching
You have given short history,so difficult to come to conclusion. You have papuar eruptions on face particularly on forehead. And the lesions are very itchy. I think you may be having either allergic contact dermatitis or prurigo simplex. There may be some cause like insects,dust,pollutants,pollens,perfume,soap, shampoo, cosmetics or some other. Sunrays,Stress,anxiety and tension may exacerbate. Take a short course of steroid in tappering dose. Take antihistaminics like levocetirizine. Apply mid steroid cream or tacrolimus oint. Avoid contact with suspected triggers. I think you may be alright. Still,you consult dermatologist. I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
