When puberty hits

My youngest sister who is in her puberty stage started having allergies after eating oysters. At first her back really itched so bad. Then rashes appeared in her upper arms then in her face. We called our family doctor to tell us what to do for first aid. The doctor gave us an anti-allergy drug and so the itching stopped.

A week later my sister had red bumps on her forehead. We thought that it was an after effect of the allergy so we went to the dermatologist for a check-up. It turns out that the red bumps were actually pimples, starting to grow out. The allergic reaction from last week may have triggered the acne breakout. It is also possible that it was another of those puberty stages. At this early stage, the derma suggested a mild facial soap as her acne treatments. If the acne persists after a month, then facial creams may be considered.
