<s>[INST] Hello, am 45 yrs old female , who has noticed small red bumps appearing on the sides of my neck , a couple under the throat. They do get inflamed and can feel sore to the touch. I do sometimes get a couple on the lower jaw...during my youth, i had t zone acne, ...the lower cheek was always clear. now that is changing, is it due to my age and hormones? [/INST] Hi! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query. Yes, it could be due to the hormonal changes in your body. I would advise you to please take appointment wiith a dermatologist in case it increases in its severity. </s>
