Reddish Blotchy Marks Over The Face With Severe Itching. What Is The Reason?
all of a sudden, I awoke this morning, getting ready for work, and noticed hot red blotchy marks all over my face, only on the right side. My face is unusually itchy and hot, almost sore to touch. I was fortunately able to cover it with makeup. However, I am home now and my face is still in the same condition, maybe even warmer, sorer and itchier. Do you have any idea what this could be? Also on my forehead .
