I have had this problem ever since I started college back in 2013.
I get these swollen lumps under the skin of my forehead, and they CAN BE, but aren't usually painful to the touch.
I had to grow a beard in order to correct the crap on my neck and jawline. That worked like a charm
If i get lucky, I can squeeze them, and a long rod of cheese like stuff comes out of them followed by a plug and clotted blood.
They heal in about 3-4 days...
There's usually a little hair at the top
Clearasil worked for a while at removing small bumps, but the larger one's kept recurring.
I was put on Dioxy. in 2014 around July, and took it EVERY DAY until about a two months ago; tapering down of course!
It really had no effect on them.
I was REALLY stressed for a while about it. It basically killed my desire for success at school; my mood changed completely and I really just stopped caring about everything. I was the best one in my class; the BEST. Now it's like I've never even been there.
It totally sucks.
I recently rose out of the constant stressed feeling about it, and yet these bumps persist.
I don't know what caused this sudden problem that I've had for a year now....
I haven't had blood work done in years.
What could it be?
I hate to go to the doctor only to find out there's nothing that can be done about it; which is what everyone says!
Which is usually the answer.
I guess it happens that way sometimes.
