I have the exact same problem also.  I wish someone would answer.

My boyfriend has the same issue, and I was trying to find out what it is. I guess no one feels like answering, though.

I have the same issue: tiny red bumps around both eyes - sometimes many and sometimes a few, sometimes itchy and sometimes not, sometimes sore.  I've had it since July.  They also sometimes appear in the creases around my mouth and around my nose.  I have no history of allergies, and am generally really healthy.  Help!

I had the same thing.  Red bumps and swelling around my eyes.  The first dermatologist I went to thought it was allergies.  She prescribed Alegra and a topical steroid.  FYI any time you are given a topical steroid you should only use it for a very short period.  I used it for way too long now my problem is 1000 times worse.  I just got back from a differnt dermatologist who knows what he is doing and he diagnosed me with "perioral dermatitis."  It is a common bacterial problem, which is usually treated with antibiotics.  This sounds like the same problem alot of you guys are having.  I start my antibiotics today so Ill post back when I have some results.  Hope this helps guys. http://www.aocd.org/skin/dermatologic_diseases/perioral_dermatiti.htmlT

I just got random red bumps around my left eye. I use to wear the foundation I've always put on and now this!!! Is it contagious?? How often does it come back?? How long will it take before it goes away?? It itches but I'm able not to itch except when I wake up I forget all about it.
