What Causes Whiteheads On Face And Neck After Suffering From Sore Throat?
I had a sore throat on Wednesday evening; developed flu-like symptoms (high temp, chills, muscle ache, etc) on Thursday; a red goosebump like rash (covering my chest, face, arms and neck) on Friday which wasn t itchy but was very hot to the touch. This morning I woke up with a handful of small whiteheads on my face. My face, ears and neck are now covered in these white heads. Any ideas?
