Ok; this started early last week, as a result I took thursday off from school, but now it's worse. What I have acquired are bumps on my face and bags under my eye. I look bad; So bad infact I took Wednesday of this week past week off too, and I seen my doctor yesterday about these problems and some others I was having. BTW, I am 16 if that would be relevant to anyone.

He doctor said that I have a cold thats going around - I /really/ don't believe that. I don't have any cold symptoms, I think what I experiencing is a result of my allergies, which I have quite a few of. He refuses to give me anything to alleviate the bags and bumps because I am already on Advair and Prozac, he doesn't want me to take allot of medications. I don't want to go back begging him for anything so soon so I need some logical reasoning for my bumps and bags; and a way to alleviate the problems so I can continue school with confidence. I've been getting plenty of sleep so I know that's not it, the past few morning I've been applying ice to my eyes, and under my eyes on my bags.. I think this reduced the bags little bit but they didn't go away, and the other night I also tried cucumbers, but they didn't yield the result I really wanted.

He recently issued my sister some Benzoyl Peroxide bumps on her face, but according to him I have a cold; But IMO I don't.

What can I do? Please feel free to ask questions, I'll be checking back to this topic often so I can act quickly.

Bumps is a vague description, so it's hard to tell what those may indicate without more detail. Do you have any congestion or nasal drainage at all? Bags and facial swelling around the sinuses can be symptomatic of both severe allergy and/or a sinus infection. If your doctor is a family practioner or primary care provider he/she might not be as familiar with the better allergy drugs as a specialist. While you have only been having the symptoms for a short period, you may want to ask for a referral to an allergy specialist or get a second opinion from another doctor, especially if the problem persists. On the other hand, there may be a cold virus going around that includes the specific symptoms you have and that is why the doctor thinks you have this cold.
