Hi, My 14 mth old son has 2 large blemishes on his face. They both seem to have started out small and have grown quite large. When I touch it it feels like an underground pimple, like there is something in the middle of it. It is very red and the middle of it is a little yellowish. The one blemish has been there for 5 days now and does not look like it is getting any smaller. We have a dr. appointment on Thursday, but just thought I would ask. Any ideas?
Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query your son have symptoms of large blemishes on face which is due to accumulation of sebum infected by microorganisms like bacteria in clogged pores of sebaceous glands. Need not worry. I would suggest you to use cream containing comic acid. You should clean your face twice a day with face wash containing benzoyl peroxide daily, exfoliate your skin once a week to remove dead skin and Chat Doctor.  If condition persist then consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may prescribe antiseptic cream for blemishes, glycolic acid cream for scars and also recommend options like laser therapy (fractional laser) and microneedle for scars.
