bumps

Avatar f tn I keep getting these small red bumps on my hands and wrist that itch really bad but end up going away at night. Then they come back itching even more. It has been over a week now having it. What could it be?
Avatar m tn I have these bumps on my arms starting just below my elbow and going about halfway down toward my hand. It's been going on since summer. They don't hurt and you probably wouldn't even notice them unless I pointed them out. Is it the early symptoms of psoriasis? Should I just apply lotion everyday?
Avatar n tn I have some small bumps on my arms that start as small white heads and then 'pop' and become larger open sores. they seem to be spreading on my arms. they are seem to be concentrated on my upper left arm but one appered on my right arm. they don't seem to be healing even after about 3 weeks. also they are puffy on the outside and puss out when touched. any idea what this could be or how i can make them go away?
Avatar m tn I got tested for everything else and all results came up negative but I have noticed now that i have little white bumps appearing everywhere on my body, mostly on my arms. Some of them are in little clusters and they itch really bad. I do not know what this is....any advice would be appreciated.
Avatar f tn I have these red bumps that itch like crazy ! They started on my ankles around 6-8 months ago. Somehow they worked their way to my forearms. I probally have around 6 on each leg and around 3 on each arm. The ones that first formed 6-8 moths ago are STILL there and they STILL itch as bad as they did when i first got them. That inclued both arms and legs. They will itch extremley bad and usually when one starts to itch they will all start to itch at the same time.
Avatar m tn The ones on my chest have come and gone for years, but the ones on my arms were very pecuilar. They first formed as bumps, turned redish, and I popped some of them and they healed with a crust on top. Some of them appear as if hair has grown out of them, but it freaks me out, because now I have two on my right arm. I also get burning sensations from time to time around my arms and neck and shoulder area. Also in between my thighes.
Avatar n tn I notice on my arms, butt, & hands looks like mosquito bumps. It's really itchy, red & now it's swollen. What could it be?

Avatar f tn I've had itchy white and/or red bumps on my arms and legs for quite some time now. I first noticed it in late April on my wrists. The tiny white bumps would get irritated and red only upon scratching. I would scratch and it wouldn't help, so I tried some over-the-counter cream that didn't really help. Then I noticed that it had spread to my thighs, legs and even on my feet. It's really bad at night and I have to resist the urge to scratch constantly.
Avatar f tn ve noticed recently that my forearms often become itchy and whenever I scratch my arms, the area I scratched develops a pink-ish hue and small bumps appear. The small bumps themselves aren't weirdly colored or anything...in fact they kind of look like abnormal goosebumps (when I say abnormal I mean that the bump sizes aren't consistent..some smaller and some larger...but never bigger than say 3/16 inches..which is still pretty small).
Avatar n tn For about 6 years I have had constant bumps on my arms and legs. Some are ingrown hairs, others are more like pimples or clogged pores. A few areas are worse than others, but all are fairly bad. I have tried exfoliating and moisturizing regularly (I use Aveeno typically), but nothing seems to work. I do have mildly dry skin, but as I said, I moisturize fairly regularly and strangely do not have any significant problems with acne on my face.
Avatar m tn For a number of years i have had small little red lumps mainly on my chest and arms, they look like little lumps of trapped blood, there is no irritation from them they just look unsightly, just wondering if any one has any idea ofwhat they are and possible cause..By the way i'm Male... many thanks.
Avatar f tn For years I have bumps that will randomly appear mainly on my upper back of my arms and on my thighs and legs. The bumps are red and only itch when irratated. They last a few days then disappear. The bumps seem to worsen only when I am on a cruise the bumps then are 10x worse with the amount of bumps, rednes and itchiness. The bumps also will appear on my buttock while cruising. I have never gotten them on my buttock or that bad at home.
Avatar f tn On my neck they still appear the same as they did on my arms but they look like a tan colour and itch even more on my neck then on my face or arms. As for them on my face, they still itch but also skin seems to flake off the when i scratch them. I have tried taking antihistamines but they have not worked, just subside the ickting for a little while. So any idea what it could be?
Avatar m tn I've had these small red bumps on forearms and lower legs, for a couple years now. They start out as a very small 'pimple type' that itch, and are kinda like a small whitehead or pimple, and I itch it, I try not to, then it leaves a mark that takes forever to heal up, and sometimes leaves a small scar. My arms/legs look as if I've taken needles to myself, WHICH IS NOT the case. It's sooooo embarrassing, people look at me like i'm sickly.
Avatar f tn He has small bumps on his penis what infection could that be? its on the circular part of his penis you have to look good to see it. I think it makes him *** quicker what infection could cause that? And can infections make him *** quicker? I am young and a little worried. PLease help, i hope my questions dont seem stupid.
Avatar f tn I have had small red dots on my arms and tops of my legs for as long as i could remember. They are everywhere not just in random places. The ones on my arms have gotten lighter but havent disappeared. Later ones on my stomach appeared also. These ones are raised more than the ones on my arms and legs. They do not itch or hurt but are unattractive and i need an answer. Its hard to wear shorts and skirts or a bathing suit because people ask if i have goose bumps when i do not.
Avatar f tn One day i wale up and i have red bumps all over my arms, legs feet amd buttocks,and scattered on body that itch like crazy, somwtimes drawing blood from scratching. A few daya later i notice a small bump on the edge of the head of penis with a dry skin atop it. It itched along qith little bumps along shaft which matched small bumps i had around Nd between my knuckles. Just little dry bumps. Ive tried steriod creams Nd benedryl. The bene helped a little but atill the skin itches like crazy.
Avatar m tn I looked at pictures of granuloma annulare. I am not convinced that is what these bumps are. These are individual, small, shiny, tiny bumps that are soft just like regular skin. I will not see a doctor because I am poor. I did not make this clear earlier, but I have one individual bump that I know of that stands alone with no other bumps around it.
Avatar f tn Im concerned over a problem.For a while now iv been devoloping these itch little bumps on the backs of my legs,and they have been spreading.They started on the backs of my legs from a little bump and spread from there.Now iv got them on my arms and I think they are starting to spread to my stomach..They are the color of my skin and you can barly notice them,exept from the ons that I itch so bad that they have turned hard and pink,they kinds look like a bump colony,close together.
Avatar m tn It looks flat on my stomach, but is slightly raised (very small red bumps) on my arms. They itch like crazy and I actually wake up at night because I have to scratch. It actually looks like Keratosis Pelaris, except that that KP isn't supposed itch. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/61/Keratosis_pilaris_arm.jpg The itch did start a few weeks after I had sex, although we only had oral sex (I'm worrying about eosinophilic folliculitis related to HIV).
Avatar m tn About 5 days ago I noticed I had a bunch of red dots on my chest and arms. At first they didn't seem to be bumps, but now I can feel raised bumps on my chest and stomach. They don't itch or hurt, I haven't changed any detergents or soap, and I changed my sheets recently. I also have a couple on my feet and hands, and this morning I woke up to a slight "tingling" sensation if I rub my hands together or put pressure on my feet.
