My 8 year old has spots!?!


Question: Is this normal, she has spots on her forehead (like little tiny blackheads, some are whiteheads) and she gets a few on her chin. I don't understand why she is getting these at her age. Is there anything I can use on her skin for the age she is at? They aren't angry whiteheads or big red pimply spots, just pin prick looking blackheads but she is becoming self conscious about them. She won't eat many vegetables, but does eat fruit, she hardly eats sweets as I don't like my kids eating them too often. And I rarely let her eat Mcdonalds all other crap like that. Why would she be getting these at her age? Thanks

Hello, Does she have oily hair or skin...oily hair can cause this especially if she has bangs...try keeping hair off this area and see if it goes away...You could use an oatmeal based soap...If she wears a hat...don't...also try getting her to eat more fruits and vegs...read this to her...if she thinks that more vegs can help...and it could...that might work...another thing....when exposures happen...it causes our pitutary gland to release more of the chemicals that can cause this...It reads to me....oily condition of hair and or skin or both...God Bless!!

there have been studies that the hormones in our milk have been triggering early-onset puberty. That being said, make sure to remind her to wash her face.
