Whatever you do don't aggravate it.

Are you allergic to anything you might have accidentally digested lately?

I think your skin might just be really dry. Hot and dry weathers can do that to the skin--rob the skin of its natural oils.

Have you been putting anything on your face lately? Some component of what you're using might have something you're allergic to in it.

I think this is becoming the catch phrase of the health forum but--if it gets really bad, go see a doctor. _smile.gif

1. about 3-4 months ago i got a prescription from my doctor and used it for about a month and it didnt work so i ditched it and about a week ago i decided to start using it again

2. its usually hot here in houston and it has been cooling down alot lately and yes my skin has been drying up

3. currently i am using neutragina oil free acne wash. i recently switched off of proactive cause it didnt do a single thing for me.

Cut out the spamming.

It may not be an actual rash. But if it presist for more than a day, I suggest you go see a doctor. Only a doctor accurately pinpoint the problem. And since there are many types of rashes we cant really give that much good advice on how to treat one since treatment can range from mild to severe.

Go see a doctor if it lasts more than say...3 days? It's really a trend aroudn here, but a doctor is probably the only one who can specifically help you.

^ even though you were clearly kidding, i find it offense that you would joke about that. _dry.gif

it's most likely just an allergic reaction. relax! if a couple of days from now it's still there, then you should consider seeing a dermatologist.
