Q: Allergy? I Don't Know

Hi

i moved from ohio down to south carolina about a year ago. Ever since then I noticed that I started breaking out really bad. I've tried all types of skin care products but nothing works. I noticed after awhile that when I wake up in the morning my skin is perfectly clear....Like it used to be in ohio. As the day goes on I get bumps all over my face that look like pimples. They aren't red just under the skin. On the right side of my face I sometimes form red patches of skin that itch but it's only about a quarter size on my right cheek that does that. I don't understand what it could be from. If anyone thinks they have an idea what it is or something to try please let me know.

That sounds like a possible allergy to me. When I went off allegra (which I was taking every day for months), I got these little bumps on my forehead all over. As soon as I started back on the allergy pills, it went away.
My allergist didn't think there was any correlation, but I became acclemated to a new allergy pill, and there have been no more bumps.

Not 100% sure this is the cause but it seems logical to me.

Perhaps you should pay a visit to an allergist and see if you are allergic to anything. I have a dust allergy, so everywhere I go is dusty and I need to take a 24 hour pill daily.

Good luck...

Bumps
Could be rosacea, milia or keratosis pilaris...Not really sure. If it's the latter of the 3, this is what I have as well. It's basically dry skin with small bumps (sometimes red or flesh colored) that look similar to pimples, but without the inflamation. You can read about kp at Helpforkp.Com and you try using a humidifier to keep the air in your home from being to dry.
