What Could Be The Red Spots On Face Oozing Clear Liquid?

My 13 year old daughter had red spots appear on her face yesterday. They are increasing in number exponentially. They are under her chin as well. These are not pimples. However, they do ooze a clear liquid. We have tried salicylic acid face washes. They do not work. We tried a face mask thinking it was acne, that only made it worse. I gave her some Noxema face wash that had an antibacterial agent in it, triclosan (0.3%). She just showed me one near her groin area. Now I am very concerned. Any suggestions? Oh, we just came back from the beach Wednesday. She had a sunburn on her face. We travel often though, so I do not think this is related to the problem.

Hi.
As per your case history your daughter is having allergic dermatitis.
My treatment advice is -
1. Don't squeeze the lesions as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic plus steroid cream like fusiderm-b cream twice daily on it.
3. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine twice daily for 7-10 days.
4. Other treatment options are oral antibiotics, oral steroid taken only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
