My 12 year old daughter has blackheads on chin and nose?

Leave them alone. Black heads are a fact of life for some people. She can try using a cleansing scrubber such as Buf-Puf to minimize them. Pinching, popping, etc is only going to make her pores seem larger and damage her skin. If you ABSOLUTELY have to pop, get an appropriate tool from the pharmacy. Digging into the skin with nails is going to create sores and scars. Overwashing and using harsh cleansers are going to dry her skin out, creating an overproduction of oil, which will exacorbate the blackhead problem. Blackheads are dried sebum, the oil your skin naturally produces.

she might have a rash, which is normal for little kids to get. Most likely she has a yeast infection. No matter what, go to the pediatrician and maybe get her on some antibiotics.

Sounds like chicken pox to me my daughter had them when she was about 3 and only had two on her face.I would take her to the doctor just to be on the safe side.

My daughter had lots of milia on her nose and chin when she was born. It took a while, but it went away on it's own. The doctor told me that it is normal in newborns. Since you're obviously not a newborn, you should maybe go to a dermatologist to see if there is anything you can use to get rid of it.

are you sure a sweat gland is swollen or is it a lymph node?.....best to be checked out...but not by a dermatologist....she should see her pediatrician first....but if she uses sick deodorant that could be the culprit....roll on is better....doesn't clog poors as bad.....good luck.....

If you have a doctor, see if he will prescribe ProActive. However, if you want to save money, wash your face at least 3 times a day with a good astringent. Wash first in hot water to open the pores, cleanse with an astringent and rinse in warm water. Then Rinse your face again with cold water to close the pores. This works well, but it will take a little while to clear the blemishes up. My daughter has this problem, and she does what I suggested, and her face is clear now. Try not to use hair spray, because it clogs your pores. Another thing my daughter uses is a mud facial masque, it's by Helene Curtis, not really expensive. She puts it on before she goes to bed, (you're supposed to wash it off after 15 minutes) but she leaves it on all night and washes it off when she gets up. Good luck!

She must be extra allergic to them.  She should probably see a doctor.  Don't worry.  If she's not sick other than the rash, it's just an allergic reaction on her skin and nothing bad will happen to her.

My mum had the same problem.  It turned out she had nasal pollops. I can't really tell you much about them.  My mum had them quarterised, and this stopped the problem.  It might be worth asking your GP?

I've personally never had any black heads on my legs but my suggestion would be to exfoliate your legs daily. Get something like St. Ives apricot scrub and a loofah and scrub your legs daily with it. Good Luck!

well, sometimes they will have blackheads or pimples on their face. That's kinda obvious. But sometimes you can't tell b/c the acne is located on their backs, legs, etc.  You just have to ask them if you REALLY want to know.

It is hereditary, however washing 2 times daily, with soap and water helps.\n\nIn addition, she should use peroxide on her skin to fight the acne.\n\nShe will look young when she gets older.  Oily skin is a blessing, in that oily skin tends to wrinkle slower.\n\nI have another secret...I put baby powder under my bangs, and around the oily spots to soak up the oil, and then I just wipe it down so it doesn't look white.  It absorbs oil and keeps my skin drier.\n\nPS- I see someone on here said moisturize the oily skin.  Never, ever, ever moisturize oily skin.  It makes matters far worse.  I have lived with it 41 years and seen many, many dermatologists about it.  :)\n\nGood luck!

Go to the Dr. and have her blood platelets checked.\nSevere , chronic nose bleeds in children can be a sign of low platelets and then they need to be monitored.\nThere are many different causes for low count.\nSometimes severe illness, strep, perasite (like worms) but as long as they go up your fine.\nSometimes they never know why they dip down low.\nGEt her checked though especially if there is no history of them.

It sounds like a virus that seems to go away,but instead lays dormant for a few days. There's not much that can be done for this except plenty of bed rest and fluids. During the times that she's not feeling unwell,make sure she's still taking it easy so as not to weaken her immune system.\n\nJust saw your daughter's age-I'd get her straight to the doctor's,there is a real danger of her becoming dehydrated. Does she also have a high temperature? Keep a check on this and sponge her down from time to time with cool water. She may also have a food intolerance,such as dairy-so tell the doctor you want her checked for this. Don't ask-TELL. You know your daughter better than anybody.

Why are you asking these people.  Take your daughter to a doctor....

My daughters nose would bleed like that too and the doctor said it was sinus problems and allergies. She used to get these huge clots too that would scare me to my wits end! She still gets them occasionally but it's not as frequent as before.

Zinc.  After sending my daughter to 3 dermatologists, many medications with no luck i read that people with bad acne usually have a zinc deficiency. I put her on zinc and after 6 weeks her face was almost totally clear.  It was amazing.  And you can get it over the counter too.
