Question

I'm using Deriva Cms gel for treating my acne, but I have sensitive combination skin, and I'm a bit unsure about how to go about it. Should I apply the gel just on the acne spots, or is it okay to put it on my whole face? I'm really hoping to get this right, so your advice would be super helpful!

I've noticed my forehead is swollen just above my right eye. It's not itchy or painful and measures about 1 inch wide by 1.5 inches in height. A couple of nights ago, my head was really itchy, and I had big, itchy bumps all over my shoulders. I'm not sure if that's connected, but what might be causing the swelling on my forehead?
