Adult Forehead Acne

Hello, I've been experiencing many small bumps, large, sometimes painful boils and redness on my forehead for the past six months. Before that I had no problem with acne for about 3 years. 

The only thing I could contribute to this is the fact that I've starting going to the gym four days a week (weight-lifting mostly). 

I've started a regimen of using Proactiv twice-a-day but it seems to only help a little. 

Any incite is appreciated.

How would I know though? Wouldn't a yeast problem itch? I don't have that problem.

no real way to test it. just worth keeping it in mind if standard acne treatments dont work.
