Hi, I am from the United Kingdom, am male, and 23 years old.

For the last couple of years I have had a problem which has caused me great discomfort.

Whenever I grow a beard, my skin around my beard (in the SAME certain areas) are sore and itchy. Whenever I apply a HOT towel to those areas, the feel of relief is tremendous, but also causes excess itchiness (especially in hot climates)..

Whenever I shave, the area on my skin is mainly clear with a few red spots (without whiteheads). My skin then also feels great and I have zero irritation or soreness.

So the problems arise when I grow out my beard. The left cheek (in a SPECIFIC area) and the right cheek (in a MIRRORED SPECIFIC area) plus under my chin is sore and constantly in need of an itch.

Can someone give me a guess/diagnosis to the problem and some possible cures..

Cheers
