Itching on cheeks for weeks
Hello doctor greetings of the day
I have been living in Belgium since 9 months recently I got pimples on my cheeks (one or two) and started itching severe at night time couldn't sleep that area has become so sensitive as I applied honey and lemon one day immediately started burning sensation and became reddish. I had this type of situation 5 years ago since then with no complaint of having a pimple. Now it suddenly started as dandruff has increased so much due to weather conditions here ( using anti dandruff) before I used to have small bumpy skin on forehead after using anti dandruff shampoo it disappeared but suddenly started to pop pimples.
At present I have no active pimple but had scars
and itching a lot.Could you help with these.
Thanks in advance.

So the concern is Dandruff which is giving you acne on forehead , if you using any medication for Acne....reconsider the cosmetic products or the medication you using which can be causing dryness of your skin leading to itching. Or any allergic condition.
For further guidance you can consult online or visit the clinic.
