Skin problems while on Med?

I've been taking Concerta for about a few months. I've been noticing my skin becoming extremely itchy especially at night, and my face is beginning to get bumpy and red. I had acne before but it was never like this. I'm also in my 30's so, I'm not sure if it's a sign that I'm aging. Has anyone experienced this side effect and what did you do to treat it?

I would call the doctor. It could be the concerts, it could be the weather, or something entirely different

This is a possible side effect of Concerta. It did not happen to me, but it did happen to my daughter and we ended up discontinuing with her at the advice of her doctor.
