What Do Itchy Bumps On The Face, Neck And Back Indicate?

I have spots that randomly appear on my face ,head, neck, and upper back. they start like a small pimple and will get itchy. If I leave them they get bigger . after a few days of applying alcohol they stop itching and get dry patches. residual spot takes a while to go away .
