Avatar n tn I started rubbing my knee and noticed a couple small bumps under the skin and on top of my knee cap, it almost feels like a bead under my skin, and it hurt very bad to touch it. It is on my left leg and floats around the top of my knee cap when I touch it what do i do?
Avatar f tn It is possible it is some cyst a cyst is a fluid filled pouch under the skin it could be the fluid from your knee joint is leaking, and your body has created a pouch to protect it. Flesh colored bumps can also be seen in a condition called Molluscum contagiosum.Acne on the knee cap responds to good skin care and over the counter treatments. Salicylic acid washes and pads containing benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid may be helpful. See a dermatologist. Keep me posted. Best luck and regards!
Avatar n tn I am a 26 year old male who recently had unprotected sex with a girl I met while on vacation. Within 3 days, I noticed 3-4 bumps behind my knee on the right side of my body which were extremely painful. Shortly after, I noticed that my lymph nodes in my groin area (also on my right side) were swollen. The following day I noticed a small patch of bumps on my behind (also the right side), which haven't actually turned into red bumps, mostly beneath the skin but painful.
Avatar f tn About a week and a half ago I noticed red bumps on my inner thighs just above my knees. Shortly thereafter the skin under my scrotum started to burn and get a little sweaty. The skin around my scrotum also got itchy. I started getting really anxious. This week my knees started tingling and this morning I noticed 5-7 red bumps on my elbows. could this all be herpes or due to stress from my extreme anxiety?
Avatar n tn I've had non-irritating bumps on my thighs (from the hip to the knee) since I can remember. At first I thought it had to do with my leg hair, but shaving doesn't help. They look like constant goose-bumps, basically. Is there something missing in my diet that's causing this, perhaps? I had an iron-deficiency as I was growing up. Thanks!
Avatar n tn I have had itching under the skin on two occassions. Once months after my C-section, I had it under the skin over the internal muscular incision. The second time I've had itching under the skin was once a few days after a minor injury to my knee. After many years on rare occasion I still get the itch at the C-sect site but have never had the knee itch again. I believe it had something to do with the itch from healing.
Avatar n tn The ones that appear on his head and legs are just fatty bumps under his skin. No skin loss. None of these are itchy or cause him any pain. Im not sure if this is just a common allergic reaction or if i need to bring him to the vet.
Avatar n tn I have been having blood spots under the skin on my knee, and I noticed my knee is sinking in inthevspot.
Avatar m tn t notice anything that looked like an outbreak. This time, i had about 4 bumps about three inches above the back of my knee. They aren't painful, but freak me out. I have scheduled three appointments at planned parenthood and skipped them all because I am too scared to be told I have herpes, even though I have not had a clear and typical herpes outbreak (according to the billions of pictures I've seen). Anyway.
Avatar n tn I looked up dishydrosis on the internet and the only difference between what I saw and what is on my finger is that the bumps/dots are completely underneath the skin. When I straighten the finger the bumps become raised because its almost like they get squeezed together and push up towards the surface of the skin (They are located in between the distal and intermediate phalanx). When the finger is bent and the skin is stretched, the skin becomes smooth again.
Avatar f tn I'm not sure what has caused this but since I moved to college I been having mutiple itchy bumps (kinda pinkish) on my body. They are everywhere, my stomach, thigh and behind my knee! I thought they would disappear but it's been weeks. I don't know what to do, they itch so much, my skin has become dry and I think it's peeling of ( white dead skin on bumps) . Most bumps are not that big, one is about the size of a dime but the others ones are smaller.
Avatar m tn One day not long ago I got on my knees and it felt like the skin on the inside of my right knee by the knee cap was ripping. I do not have any bumps, or numbness or anything like that. With in the last couple of weeks the left knee is experiencing the same thing, just not as painful.
Avatar m tn Also, it should be noted that these bumps are not puss-filled. They are just bumps on my skin that are not discolored or filled with any fluid.
Avatar n tn im african american and i have small dark bumps under my arms. they are SUPER embarrassing and im a dancer and i cant even wear my dance attire without being embarrasses. they dont hurt they are just THERE they arent tiny but they are not big either. their just like little slightly raised black bumps.
Avatar f tn in the last few weeks I have been noticing several lumps (about nickel sized) under the skin on the fleshy parts of my thighs. At first I thought it was just part of the uneven texture of the cellulite, then I noticed they were harder, like little knots. I then thought they might be bites of some sort (we live in the country and get all kinds of spiders and other creepy crawlies in the house at times), but they aren't going away or getting better or worse.
Avatar m tn  evening (probably 5 hours later) – realized there were 4 raised bumps on my right knee, on the left side, nearer to the calf. The bumps appeared to have some liquid inside but they were not filled; bumpsskin looked very loose; surrounding skin was of normal color, not red or discolored. I felt no pain, irritation, or tingling whatsoever; if I had not happened to notice them, I wouldn’t have known.
Avatar m tn For the last few months, I have some small bumps growing on the underside of my scrotum. It hurt when my underpants brush on them. Also, the skin around these bumps hurt from time to time. These bumps kind of come and go on their own. Someday there are more someday they seem to go away. I hope they are not genital wart but I'm worrying.
Avatar n tn Also they are roughly the same color as a bruise except lighter and red. Also the bumps appear on my knee, next to my knee, above my knee, inner thigh, upper part of my lower leg. All the bites are near to my knee on both legs. On my arms they are near the elbow and on one arm the wrist. There are about 27 bumps in total ranging from the size of the top of a pen top to a quarter depending on inflammation. But when they are not inflamed that much they still are very different sizes.

Avatar n tn At first it was only around the hip back area, then I got one bump behind my knee, one at the side of breast, one under my eye etc. They are never really cluttered, but happen in different parts of body. After 2 days, they develop a white top, which makes it look like a pimple. When they go, they leave a purple mark. They are not itchy, more sore to touch. My skin feels itchy, however, not all the time (sometimes where it is itchy, I see a bump in the new few hours).
Avatar n tn Well I have had unprotected sex, but was on predisone for another rash under my arms, I had alot of itching, chronic, but it subsided, also had small red bumps, and some discoloration and the it just changes to real dry itchy skin, on arms, inside of knee, stomach, and lower back, My skin is irritable now because it is really dry. Maybe I'm stressing too much I don't know, but I will be getting tested.
Avatar n tn For the last year my pores have enlarged and I have many white bumps under the skin on my right side of my face around the chin, jaw and top of the cheek bone down to the jaw with a few a couple in the middle of my right cheek. They arent hard bumps and most if squeezed while produce a white string substance and it never goes away. I wash my face morninng & night and have tried every type of face wash hoping to find my cure. Can you please tell me what this is and how do I get rid of them.
Avatar n tn i had the same kind of bumps on my head and also got a boil on myu knee thats when i went to my general doctor. the first thing he did was take a swab sample of the bumps and tested it for STAFF infection and sure enough. Apparently skin staff infections amongst healthy people is on the rise every where. It use to be common only in people with compromised immune systems. Not any more according to the medical professionals.
Avatar n tn I thought a keratosis was a skin lesion? This is under the skin. It is floating around in the space between/under the skin but before the patella. Plus this is a 8 year old child so do you still think a rheumatoid disease?
