What Is The Cause Of Red Spots On The Face?

Hi Dr. Grief, I woke up two days ago with three raised red spots on my right side of my face. Yesterday evening I had more on my left side of my face and chin. I just got over a cold but have only taken some Tylenol and Advil cold and sinus but that was a few days ago. Not sure where this rash is coming from. I still have it today but it has not spread any further. Please advise.

Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have red spots on the face which occurs when there are hormonal changes, dandruff, hair follicle infection, stress and clogged pores of sebaceous gland filled with sebum ,dead skin and bacteria get infected. I would suggest you to apply Adapelene gel once at night. Apply antibacterial ointment topically such as betnovate. Avoid oily and fried food and make use of product containing benzoyl peroxide. Take Multivitamin supplements. Drink plenty of water daily and add fresh fruits and vegetables to your diet. If condition doesn't start getting better in a month then consult dermatologist. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics course.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
