I have these bumps on my cheek, looks like a raised hard pimple with a tiny dark center. ^ months ago I first noticed one, now I have 4 or five all in the same area. Skin Cancer? Do you know you look like the actor jamess Caviezel? that s not a medical question just my observation

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have hard bumps on the cheeks , it could be due to hormonal changes, stress and change in life style at times. It can also occur due to allergic reaction due to any cosmetic product .It could be due to clogging of pores of salivary glands. I would suggest you to apply combination of clindamycin gel during day time and Adapalene gel at night time. Application of Topical retinoids will be helpful to you along with topical benzoyl peroxide. Drink plenty of water. Wash your face frequently several times during the day with plain water. Take diet rich in multivitamins. You should take oral antibiotics such as doxycycline, azithromycin or minocycline to prevent further exaggeration.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
I find this answer helpful
