Spotty Forehead

[StevieBee]

Over the past year or so, I've begun developing a spotty forehead. It comes and goes but of late, when it comes it comes quite bad. (Currently got a whopper, a near solid lump but managed to extract most of it's contents this evening!! ).

This has coincided with me getting fitter. Have binned the fags, lost near to 2 stone, excersize regularly, hardly drink and eat very healthily, not stressed, sleep well......so the usual suspects don't really apply.

Trying to avoid my first visit to the GP being for zits (I'm 45!!!) so any pointers gratefully received!

ETA: I do use 'product' but the same I've used for a long while and have long stopped putting anything cosmetic on the affected area.

A good case of Acne i suspect ....you may need some antibiotic cream..worth getting checked out by your GP though.

Outbreaks of acne/boils can sometimes signal blood sugar problems (eg diabetes). Are you eating a very low fat diet?

At any rate, consider washing/dabbing with tea tree or tea tree/witch hazel combined.

I used to get it after cycling, mainly through wiping my forehead with either a dirty shirt sleeve or sweaty gloves.

Make sure nothing dirty is wiping your forehead (towel/glove/clothing etc)
