When you have pimples only on the forehead you have to look into the scalp as the probable cause. What happens if the scalp is greasy, if you are onto a lot of workouts, you don’t take head showers regularly. So whatever sebum or the oil gets collected onto the scalp can clog the pores on your forehead. So that is one responds that you can get pimples only on the forehead . Another reason is when you are doing any work or any reading, most of the times your hands tend to touch your forehead and try to feel what is happening. That also irritates the skin on the scalp, clog the pores and give rise to pimples. One reason can be due to excessive sweat, excessive workouts, you are roaming around in dusting environments can give rise to pimples only on the forehead . Another cause is you have tight bandages on the bandanas or caps on the scalp which comes onto the forehead. That could occlude the pores and gives rise to pimples.
