bumps

by bissuetty, Jun 03, 2009 10:04PM
I have 3 red like bumps on my face, which look like mosquito/spider bites. They do not itch, I got 1 yesterday and throughout today 2 more developed. Should I be concerned?

Hi,

Aside from insect bites, the bumps could be attributed to an irritation, infection or folliculitis. Removal of the irritant may lead to its resolution. Folliculitis or inflammation of the hair follicles may also resolve after some time. It  is important to keep the area clean and dry. If it persists, have this evaluated further for proper management. Otherwise, there is nothing to be worried about.

Take care and regards.
