bumps

Avatar m tn It is characterized by intense itching, usually at night and by small insect-type bites lesions on the skin. Diagnosis of scabies is made by scraping the skin and viewing the material under a microscope to see the characteristic mite or eggs. So my advice would be to consult a dermatologist and get this investigation done to rule out/ confirm scabies.
Avatar n tn My skin on my left lower back is sensitive to the touch as well as the skin on my abdomen to the right of it. I was wondering maybe because my sister has a dog in her house as well as a lizard. They don't keep a very clean house. I picked up there dog a couple of times petting it and stough. Just wondering if that had anything to do with it. Thanks.
Avatar n tn They are also very prone to folliculitis, or pimple like bumps on the skin. Usually the bumps have a puss-like substance that comes out of them. If your vet feels your dog has folliculitis, he should be treated with antibiotics, which should be continued for a long time, much longer than they are usually used for. To give you an example, our Blue dobe had to be on antibiotics for his folliculitis for 3 full months, at high dosages, before we saw a resolution from it.
Avatar m tn m 19 and around 2 weeks ago I started getting really itchy out of pretty much nowhere and there are no visible rashes, bumps except on my thighs there are maybe 6 - 10 small red bumps but I'm assuming they're flea bites because I have 2 cats and a dog and I itch just about everywhere on my body. It's not so severe that it interferes with my daily life but it is rather annoying.
Avatar f tn m writing having the hope that someone will somehow have an answer to my problem. It all started 2 months ago when I noticed a lot of red tiny spots on my skin. They started developing quickly on my back, on my arms and and on my abdomen. I freaked out and I started searching the Internet for an answer and found a lot of terrible deseases like leukemia, lupus and vasculitis and this only freaked me out more.
Avatar f tn No red bumps on our Westie, about 9 years old... see my post on the "ear" subject to which I posted today. There may be something in there to consider. My suggestion is to be aggressive about limiting opportunities for food allergies being the problem. As I have already said, feed only No Grain, especially in Kibble (even "good" Kibble) and switch protein source.
Avatar n tn What a cute dog! It might just be allergies.My dog Oscar gets bumps on the top of his head, they kind of look like zits. One day when I brought him in for vaccinations, the vet told me not to worry, its probably allergies and if it started to bother him, we would further investigate. He only gets them once in a while. Usually when he is frolicking in weeds, etc. They go away in a couple of days. I wouldn't worry unless they start to get large, ooze or hurt him. Just keep an eye on him.
Avatar f tn My fiancee has noticed that he has tiny red bumps on his penis. he says thye appear when he sleeps with no clothes on and after a couple of days the will disappear. He also said that there are about 5-12 tiny red bumps and they almost look like smaill pimples.
Avatar m tn I've been having these flesh colored bumps on my skin, they are pretty big (about the size of the tip of an eraser) I first started having these on my buttock area by my back. Sometimes they itch, and when i scratched them they eventually healed and left brown marks on my skin. I have been having the same problem on my arms around the fore-arm, elbow area, and legs (i have a HUGE one on my leg thats red and looks like a spider bite.
Avatar m tn t an option because the dog can eat only ONE kind of food for 6 weeks - nothing else. No treats. My dog is on 4 daily pills and there would be no way to hide them in food if we did the food trial. I ended up switching him to Natural Balance duck & potato food. Charlie hasn't had a red face since. I suspect Jerry's right. Your dog probably has an allergy/sensitivity to the protein (chicken) in his food. I'd suggest trying a new protein and seeing if that makes a difference.
Avatar n tn My 34-year-old daughter has suffered for about 10 years with hard, seemingly callused, red bumps, filled with pus, on both arms. The skin on the rest of her body is beautiful. She has seen many doctors, three of therm were dermatologists. She has been "diagnosed" with prurigo nodularis, even though these bumps have never itched! Her allergist treated her for an infection. The antibiotic gave a little improvement but just for a short time.
Avatar f tn My dog ​​is 15 years old. A year ago on his skin appeared strange bumps that periodically bursted. what is the problem?
Avatar n tn I had little red zit like bumps all over my tummy. I used a lot of hand lotion on them for years and the bumps kept getting worse. I would pick them and they would bleed. I found a cure for that annoying problem. I changed my soup to a glycerin bar. Glycerin soup takes all the oily stuff off my skin. Allowing my skin to breath and to be able to take care of its self. Two years now no bleeding bumps at all. I was suprised the cure was so easy.
Avatar f tn s like a cluster of raised tiny bumps in one spot on the top of both hands. they have been there for a week now. I have gotten them before 1-2 yrs ago and never knew what caused them but they went away and I have not noticed them again until now recently. it has just became warm here now again, my husband thought it could be a sweat rash but I'm pre sure it's not that.. does anyone have any idea what this could be?
Avatar f tn About 20 or so years ago my husband was bitten by a dog on his calf. He has a scar on the front of his calf about the size of a nickle. The skin where the scar is has always looked dried out & at some spots even flaky. We have always rubbed lotion on it to keep it from drying out. About 7 or 8 months ago the scar suddenly went away, you couldn't even tell where it was. It was the strangest thing. It stayed gone for about a month then it came back.
Avatar f tn I noticed these red dots on my hands this morning. There are several of them on both hands. They are all pretty much perfect circles, solid red throughout with no pus or apparent "bite" marks, and they're all the same size (a little smaller than a pencil eraser). They are not raised, painful, or itchy. They're just red dots (I wouldn't even call them "bumps") on the top and sides of my hands and fingers - none on my palms or feet. Any idea what they might be?
Avatar n tn When my dog had hers removed, the vet had them tested for cancer, just to be sure, and they were benign. The first time she had them on her leg. She has one now on top of her head. It will be removed at her next dental exam when she is already knocked out. My vet said they were really nothing to be concerned about.
Avatar n tn there are no scales on the bumps, the bumps are the same texture as the rest of my skin, however the bumps are just red, a little raised and itchy. If i try and squeeze them, a tiny tiny bit of clear puss will come out.
Avatar n tn yes i have the same red dot on the head of my penis and i noticed them right after i had sex with soem girl there and im gonna go check my self cause im freakin out...they dont hurt or anything. every since i had sex with that girl i been going crazy cause of those red dots...i dont even want ot have sex with noone til i know what i got cause if its some kind of stds i wouldnt like to be havign sex with girls..
Avatar m tn Hi, No idea what this is -- but recently noticed that there were tons (like maybe 300-400) 'raised' bumps on chest. Reason didn't notice it before was because they are close to the skin color, and you can only really notice them when you look at them at an angle. Any idea what that is, and how to get rid of it? Incidentally, there also seem to be a bunch of tiny brown spots that also seem to be spreading at maybe a rate of 4-5/week. Thanks.
Avatar m tn My advice is to not freak out, The majority of the skin issues will clear up on there own. Some of the bumps can grow alarmingly large. As long as these bumps dont get damaged, they generally go away in 2-4 months on there own. My brindle Pit has skin issues. One of his bumps was damaged and wept blood. I had to have it removed surgically. They are called histiocytomas.
Avatar m tn Now on the OTHER side of my penis shaft, still underneath, there are three more pinprick red spots. And on the top of my penis, in the fold of skin right beneath the rim of the head, there are a whole bunch...like little dots, about 1mm in diameter if that, and painless...About ten dots or so, VERY slightly raised... Would herpes ever present like this, in various locations across the penis? Would it ever involve little dots / bumps like these--painless ones?
Avatar n tn The best treatment for solar dermatitis is sun avoidance, especially during the hot sun hours of 10am-5pm. Vit A can help reduce the appearance of sun damage on the skin, but does nothing to prevent ongoing sun damage if sunlight exposure is not prevented. There are dog sunsuits available (www.designerdogwear.com), and if sunscreen is applied it needs to be applied several times per day. With the prior skin damage indicated on biopsy, he is at risk for the development of skin cancer.
Avatar m tn The Urologist also look at my penis seen what appears to be one red bump on each side of my penis. My question is these red bumps that are adjacent from each other on each side of my penis they are hardly noticeable until I masturbate. Once I masturbate they are huge and it seems to have little bits of skin peeling off of them. I know it did first start out as being nothing there and then getting really itchy. They kind of look like a bug bite in a way and I can't exactly explain it.
Avatar n tn boiled marinated chicken skin and bones, and drunk a lot of vodkas. Also, my dog seems to have bumps too on his snout, tail, spine and ears; has been in both kitchen and living room AND finished one of my drinks.
Avatar m tn On two different days, it was like dry skin had occurred in some areas where it was red, because I flaked away skin. On the head of the penis, there are pin sized white bumps, but there are not in a cluster and I think those may have been there beforehand, and since I'm only looking now, I noticed them.
Avatar f tn They are all over my back, stomach, legs and arms. Mine start with a red area of skin and then some looked like they had a head on it. After a few days they turn into brown marks, almost like a small bruise. They stay like that for about a week or two then slowly fade away. It is very strange. I have always used the same soap, lotions, etc. years before this started. Recently I changed things up and stopped using all my old products and months later the same thing is still happening.
Avatar f tn i have tiny red bumps over the backs of both of my hands. They are filled with clear liquid and when i scratch (i know i shouldn't), they burst. Some of the bumps turn into huge red raised patces. I also get them on the sides of my fingers. They do not look infected and are not at all dry, they are just smooth bumps. I have had them for 3 or 4 years running, they disappear most of the tear but i often get a few bumps on my knuckles on a warm day.
Avatar n tn First of all, get that dog out of your bed. Do not allow the dog to sleep with you. It should have its own bed and in a different room. Whether the dog has fleas or not, you may be allergic to the dog. As you are pregnant (even if you weren't) go to see your doctor so that he can examine the rash and prescribe with you with the appropriate medication. You can use calamine lotion to relieve the itching.
