14. Looks like possible rosacea to me.

Which can affect areas of the neck as well. I have a mild case of it that flares up from time to time on my neck.

According to Google...Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory condition causing persistent redness, visible blood vessels, and acne-like bumps, primarily on the face but often affecting the neck, chest, and ears. It features flare-ups triggered by sun, heat, stress, alcohol, and spicy foods. Effective management includes gentle skincare, daily sunscreen, and medical treatments.

This is a skin condition that is considered incurable, but can be held in check with a topical antibiotic cream as well as dietary changes.
