Is It The Creams Or The Pillows Causing The Red Bumps In The Cheeks?
I've been washing my face with a cleanser called Noxzema and then applying Avon Solutions Banishing Cream on my face at night before going to sleep for about a week now. At first I had no problems, but when I woke up this morning I found little red bumps on both sides of my cheeks. I don't think its acne, and the bumps are slightly raised. I also sleep on the side of my face and occasionally switch sides throughout the night. Where are the red bumps coming from? Is it the creams or the pillow?

Hello,
Thanks for the query,
She might have developed acute urticaria.
It is an allergic condition.
Anything including food, cloth, change in climate, pollens etc can cause urticaria.
You need to find out the cause.
reatment can be with oral anti histamines.
Steroids like prednisolone are also helpful but cannot be used for long.
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
