Maybe you contracted E-coli bacteria somewhere. It will never go away and it could flare up as cyst like pimples.

No change in your diet; but, perhaps a change in the meat you eat? A lot of companies are using growth hormones in meat processing; some people have a sensitivity to them.
It has been a subject of great debate if diet plays a role in acne. Now it's becoming clear that diet or food items may not directly cause acne, but the chemicals released during the metabolism of certain food items directly influence factors causing acne, and thus worsen the condition of pre-existing acne or trigger off on set of acne.
Acne is caused by extra sebum production which is stimulated by the male hormone testosterone. Meat contains hormones and hormone-like substances which can affect the hormonal balance in body. There have been cases reported by beauticians that women who regularly eat meat are more likely to suffer from acne, which is probably caused by the steroids and hormones present in meat.

It could be related to hormones if you are female or it could be a flare up of rosacea.
