Hi,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of red rash on face which could be due to allergic reaction of body. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to visit dermatologist once and get it examined. You should go for patch test for allergic reaction. Start treatment after proper examination and diagnosis. You should take diet rich in multivitamins. Till then apply topical steroid e.g fluticasone propionate cream at affected sites. Avoid intake of oily and fast food. You should not touch and prick them, also apply ice pack on rashes to reduce redness and itchiness. Drink plenty of water.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
